Program

The WIN-Velocity Scholarship, with a value equivalent to a Graduate Research Studentship (GRS) for two years, has been made possible through a financial contribution from the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) to support domestic research-based master’s students, who will be registered full-time in their first year of graduate studies, in the Faculty of Engineering and/or Faculty of Science.

A scholarship, valued at $1,500, will be awarded annually to a graduate student registered full-time in a master's program in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering in the Faculty of Engineering who persevered to return to school after a period of time away (e.g. five years) from academics.

A scholarship, valued at up to $50,000, will be provided to one graduate student registered full-time in a doctoral program in the Faculty of Engineering.

Two awards, valued at $1,000 each, will be awarded annually to full-time undergraduate or graduate students enrolled in any program who are employed by the University of Waterloo Library currently or were so in the previous two academic terms (employment: full or part-time casual staff, co-op and work study positions, internships, volunteer roles).

Several awards, valued at $250 each, will be provided to undergraduate and/or graduate students who have successfully completed CROAT 101 or CROAT 102 in the Department of Germanic and Slavic Studies.

Travel funds, valued at up to $1,500, are available for undergraduate and/or graduate students registered at the University of Waterloo who participate in a recognized Croatian language or cultural study abroad program, an exchange program, or an approved co-op term in Croatia.

Two awards, valued at $5,000 each, will be provided annually to undergraduate or graduate students participating in Concept or Velocity programing at the University of Waterloo.
