Graduate Awards Committees
The various Graduate Awards Committees have the overall responsibility for selecting candidates for the externally-funded awards from the provincial and federal granting agencies.
Membership
- The Associate Dean, Recruitment and Graduate Awards, or delegate (non-voting);
- The Advisor, External Awards, Graduate Awards, who acts as secretary (non-voting);
- Representatives from the Faculty of John Molson School of Business;
- Representatives from the Faculty of Fine Arts;
- Representatives from the Gina Cody School of Engineering and Computer Science;
- Representatives from the Faculty of Arts and Science representing the following three areas: Social Science, Humanities, and Natural Science.
Length of term
Representatives of Faculties are appointed by their respective Faculty councils typically for a three-year term, which may be renewed.
Meetings
All committees generally meet once or twice during the Fall term. The major work of the committees falls in October, November, December, or March, depending on the awards competition. Members should be prepared to set aside the equivalent of three work days in October, November, December, or January (depending on the awards competitions) for the purpose of scoring and ranking candidates’ files.
