A GRADtalks Research Dissemination Award, valued at $500, will be provided to graduate students registered at the University of Waterloo who are selected to present their research at a GRADtalks speaker series event. Recipients of the award may be asked to provide additional follow up communications/marketing assets (e.g., blog posts) to share their experience of being a GRADtalks speaker. It is anticipated that the award will support the recipients in further dissemination of their research; recipients are encouraged to acknowledge this award if they used these funds to register and present at a future conference.
Our GRADtalks program has been postponed indefinitely. The GRADtalks webpage will be updated if and when additional events are organized.
- All graduate students within the time limits of their program, with preference given to PhD candidates are eligible to present at GRADtalks.
- Topics for upcoming talks are listed on the GRADtalks web page. Students are encouraged to apply to be speakers through the web form.
- Alternatively, students may be recommended to present by their Associate Dean, Graduate Studies.
- Students will be selected by the GRADtalks academic lead - typically an Associate Dean, Graduate Studies - as presenters based on the relevance of their topic to the theme of the GRADtalks event.
