You may apply for NSERC Undergraduate Research Award for the fall, winter, or spring term. Most students apply for spring term. If you are interested in working as an undergraduate Research Assistant in the Department of Applied Mathematics please submit the application no later than the following date:
Winter 2023 term application deadline:
September 8th, 2023 [Only applies to co-op applicants who wish to be taken off WaterlooWorks right from the start and directly use the USRA as their co-op term.]
October 10th, 2023 [Applies to all other applicants, including co-op students.]
** The duration of the award is 16 consecutive weeks on a full-time basis.
The number of awards is limited, and so it is important that you express your interest as early as possible. It is of course essential that you have taken the appropriate courses (or equivalent).
The purpose of the research awards is to introduce you to an area of research that you might choose to pursue in graduate school, and to give you some experience doing research. Sometimes, a summer research project leads to a Master’s project. At the end of the summer we will organize a mini-conference at which all the participants will give a short talk on their research project.
Are you aware that even as undergraduates, you have the opportunity to join the Waterloo's top research groups and participate in a research project for a term?

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
