Graduate School Funding Opportunities
Are you finishing up your undergraduate degree and interested in pursuing a master's? TRU has a number of
excellent master's programs.
Of course, funding also helps. If you are an excellent student, there are opportunities for you to obtain enough money to complete your graduate studies.
Tri-Council Funding
The three major funding bodies are known commonly as the "tri council". These bodies provide scholarships and grants to researchers and graduate students. TRU has allocations to send a limited number of applications forward to each of the major tri-council competitions. This means that if you are an excellent student who qualifies, you may develop and submit an application to the office of Research, Innovation and Graduate Studies to be considered for these generous and prestigious awards.
