Description
The Globalink Graduate Fellowship was a Mitacs program providing financial support to former Globalink Research Internship participants returning to Canada for further academic training. Listed among UBC’s graduate award opportunities, it supported full master’s and PhD programs and postdoctoral fellowships at eligible Mitacs academic partners. Alumni could pursue their studies at a different institution from their internship host.
The fellowship connected the Globalink internship experience with continued study and research in Canada, offering direct financial support, opportunities to work with Canadian research supervisors, and further exposure to Canada’s research and innovation landscape. Mitacs permanently discontinued the program after its final 2024 application cycle, which was exclusively for 2024 internship alumni and had limited funding.
