Financial Support
Anatomy & Cell Biology offers a competitive stipend for all students enrolled in the graduate program.
Students enrolled in the Research stream (Cell and Neurobiology MSc and PhD students) will receive no less than
the base stipend and the funds are guaranteed for the following periods of time:
- MSc (24 months / 6 terms)
- PhD (after completion of MSc) (48 months / 12 terms)
Students enrolled in the Clinical Anatomy MSc will receive at least the base stipend for the full length of the program.
- MSc (20 months / 5 terms)
Stipend levels:
While Anatomy & Cell Biology guarantees every student the minimum stipend (base), we try hard to move students into the higher stipend
categories(see below). Cell and Neurobiology research students that accept teaching positions (TA's) or receive scholarships
have higher stipend levels. Clinical Anatomy students teach as part of the curriculum but can also receive a higher stipend
should they successfully obtain scholarships.
*Please Note - The following stipend levels include tuition scholarships (if eligible) and are subject to change.
To ensure that our students are as competitive as possible for scholarships, Faculty within the program who have extensive experience serving on scholarship selection panels provide scholarship information seminars and pre-review all applications prior to submission. The results of our efforts are that many students have higher stipends than base since our success rate for scholarships is very high! Approximately, 60% of our students received a major scholarship last cycle and many of our research students TA.
