CIHR CGS-Master’s Awards:

The CGS-Master’s programs for CIHR, NSERC, and SSHRC are in the midst of a harmonization process. Please visit the tri-agency CGS harmonization webpage for more information:  http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/Students-Etudiants/CGSHarmonization-HarmonizationBESC_eng.asp. You’ll also find other useful tools and resources, including a set of frequently asked questions and a list of institutional allocations.  As you know, students will soon apply for a CGS-M using the Granting Agencies’ Research Portal and Common CV. The portal and the CGS Master’s CCV template will be accessible in early September. Students will list institutions where they are registered or intend to register in their application and the agencies will make applications available to relevant institutions. Students will take up the award at the institution where an offer was accepted (i.e., after being successful in the institution’s review process). More information on the availability of the application form, instructions, and CCV template will follow in the coming weeks.   The application deadline for students is December 1, 2013, which means the entire application and adjudication process will be pushed approximately two months later than in previous years.
