Graduate scholarships
Our graduate students are of paramount importance in positioning the University of Waterloo as one of the top research-intensive universities in Canada and contributing to our international reputation for excellence. The research conducted at UWaterloo is a vital driving force in local, national, and international economies and contributes in many ways to improvements in society. The Faculty of Mathematics competes with some of the top institutions in the world to attract graduate students. We cannot attract first-rate post-doctoral fellows and graduate students without funding to support their activities. The David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science established a Graduate Endowment Fund in 2005. The Faculty of Mathematics has established a new Mathematics Graduate Endowment Fund to support graduate students in Applied Mathematics, Combinatorics & Optimization, Pure Mathematics, and Statistics and Actuarial Science. Contributions to either of these funds will help to build the Faculty of Mathematics’ graduate programs and research strength.
Undergraduate scholarships
Entrance scholarships allow UWaterloo to compete successfully with other institutions to attract outstanding students. Upper-year scholarships are key to retaining top-performing students, providing the support they need to successfully complete their degrees. These prestigious awards include National and Global Scholarships, Descartes Foundation Scholarships and those funded by private companies and individual donors. Your support will play an important role in attracting and retaining the best students in the computing, mathematical and statistical sciences at Waterloo.
