A scholarship will be provided annually to full-time graduate students registered in the Master’s or Doctoral program in the Department of English Language and Literature in the Faculty of Arts on the basis of academic excellence (minimum 80%) and merit of professionalization activities (e.g. research travel costs or conference attendance). Students will be chosen by the Associate Chair for Graduate Studies in English Language and Literature, in consultation with the Department Graduate Committee. This fund is made possible by a donation from David Clarence Nimmo in memory of his late wife Lea Vogel-Nimmo who, via the generosity of others, was given opportunities to develop her artistic talent and reach her professional goals.
Selection will be made by the Associate Chair for Graduate Studies in English Language and Literature, in consultation with the Departmental Graduate Committee.
An application is required:
The student must submit, to the English department, a short (250 word) description of how the professionalization funds will be used e.g. research travel costs, conference attendance or special research expenditures.

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.
