Description
The BC NEIHR Doctoral Scholarship Renewal Program provides continued scholarship support for Indigenous (First Nations, Métis and Inuit) doctoral students. Offered by BC NEIHR and listed by the University of British Columbia’s Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, it is part of an Indigenous graduate funding initiative that connects research development with recognition of students’ responsibilities beyond their doctoral work.
The program aims to develop students’ research skills while helping them manage financial, family, community and cultural responsibilities. Its focus is continued scholarship support rather than a separate research project award. BC NEIHR holds graduate scholarship competitions annually, and the renewal opportunity is distinct from its separate doctoral scholarship program.
