Objective:

The purpose of the Faculty of Science and Engineering's ESSOR scholarship program is to facilitate the supervision, by faculty members, of new graduate students by contributing significantly to their funding. Thus, the program encourages the next generation of scientists by facilitating access to graduate studies. Faculty members who supervise students in the program supplement the scholarship by an equivalent or greater amount.
