Funding & support

Graduate scholarships

External scholarships at Dalhousie have two application processes: applications through the academic Faculty and applications through Graduate Studies.

The scholarships through the Faculty are:

• One-year Masters scholarship
• Nova Scotia Graduate scholarships
• Dalhousie Research Excellence scholarships
• Killam Predoctoral Award

The scholarships through Graduate Studies require a separate application. Consult Graduate Studies for their application process and timeline. 

You can, and are encouraged to apply to the Faculty scholarships even before you apply to the university itself; material that you develop for the scholarship application, like the research proposal, can then be re-used for the university application.

Students without funding

There are currently no Faculty-level entrance awards for the Master of Applied Computer Science and the Master of Digital Innovation.
