A scholarship, with a value of at least $2,000, will be awarded annually to a full-time doctoral student who is or will be registered in the Statistics program in the Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science (SAS) in the Faculty of Mathematics. Selection will be based on academic excellence (minimum cumulative average of 80% or equivalent) and research potential. Students applying for admission to the program will be considered based on their application for admission; currently registered students will be required to submit a one-page written statement describing their research, along with a nomination form from their graduate supervisor or other supporting SAS faculty member. The Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science will select recipients normally in the winter term with scholarship payments starting in the following fall term. This scholarship is being established to recognize the outstanding achievement of Distinguished Professor Emerita Mary Thompson.

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.
