Centre for Inclusive Education Research Award

Established with gifts from Alumni, this award is offered to graduate students enrolled in the Faculty of Education who will be completing a thesis on a topic related to the inclusive education of students with special needs. The award is granted through a competitive process that investigates both the merit of the project and of the student. Up to three awards of $750 each are granted annually. Eligible graduate students may apply for this award between November 15 and January 15 in each academic year; at that time, downloadable forms are available on the Centre's website. The winners are announced in February, and they are also acknowledged at the annual Faculty of Education Awards Ceremony the following June.
