For Students
University of Alberta and Faculty of Nursing- Internal Funding Opportunities
Undergraduate Student Summer Research Award
The application deadline is February 3, 2025.
The Faculty of Nursing offers a summer research program to support the work of undergraduate Honors nursing students as they experience the research environment first-hand. All honors students are involved in research activities under the supervision of a Faculty of Nursing tenure track member to develop their research skills and experience. The award is meant to support the work that Honors students engage in during their tenure in the Honors program (collaborative or after degree) and who are currently enrolled in their third year (collaborative) or first year (after degree) of the Nursing Honors.
Together, the honors program and summer research award aim to encourage students to engage in research, pursue graduate education and consider a research career. The overall purpose of this award program is to strengthen nursing-related research and talent development by providing research training support to students. The goal is to lead to the development of the next generation of nursing researchers.
Value of Student Bursary
The value of each student’s summer studentship award is $2,000 for one month, paid as a bursary. The hours can be spread out over time per discussion with your supervisor.
Upon consultation with Supervisors, students may apply as individuals, in pairs, or in groups of three.
