Friday, July 17, 2026

Six students at the Cheriton School of Computer Science have received Ontario Graduate Scholarships (OGS).  

For more than 50 years, the Ontario government has awarded the OGS to exceptional graduate students who demonstrate academic excellence, strong research ability and potential, and exceptional leadership. Recipients can receive up to $15,000, funded jointly by the provincial government and their home university. 

Applications for the OGS are processed in the same round as the Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship in Science and Technology (QEII-GSST) program, and applicants are considered for either award. This year, seven graduate students also received QEII-GSST funding.

From enhancing AI safety and reliability to paving the way for self-driving cars, this year’s cohort of OGS recipients offers a glimpse into Ontario’s next generation of researchers.
