Western Science has the Resources to Foster Innovation

Brilliant ideas can occur anywhere, what really matters are the actions after the initial spark.

Western Science has twenty new Dean's Doctoral Scholarships and other entrance scholarships available now. There is still time to apply for a September 2012 start!

Western's Faculty of Science is enhancing an already research intensive setting to nurture discovery-driven ideas.  New facilities are being built and existing buildings are being upgraded to make room for graduate students who strengthen our research projects. At the same time, graduate supervisors highly value those students who mentor the next generation of researchers whether it is through outreach activities or through teaching assistantships.
