The University of Manitoba and the Faculty of Graduate Studies offer the University of Manitoba Graduate Fellowships (UMGFs). The fellowships are awarded annually to graduate students who have demonstrated superior intellectual ability and academic accomplishments. The fellowships, valued at $18,000 at the PhD level and at $14,000 at the Master’s level, are offered each year to graduate students who:
- are enrolled in or plan to enrol in the Faculty of Graduate Studies at the University of Manitoba in either the Master’s or PhD program as full-time students (not including pre-master’s or Occasional students);
- have achieved a minimum grade point average of 3.75 in each of the last two full years of study;
- show great promise as researchers and as graduate students; and]
- are admitted to, or registered in, a program that is eligible for tri-council graduate student awards.
The UMGFs may be held in part or full, for the first two years of the Master’s program (from the date of admission) and for the first four years of a PhD program (from the date of admission). Total UMGF years of part-time study in a graduate program will be deemed equivalent to one year of full-time study at both the Master’s and the PhD level. In the case of a transfer from Master’s to PhD without completion of the Master’s degree, transfer denotes that the course work completed in the master’s program would normally become part of the PHD program. Therefore, the number of years spent in the Master’s program would be calculated as years spent in the PhD program.
During Tenure of the award, recipients must maintain a minimum degree grade point average of 3.5 and cannot receive a grade lower than a C+ (including AX courses).
The UMGF is not tenable with any other scholarship that is of equal or greater monetary value than the award UMGF.
