The International Tuition Award is administered by the University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. It helps international graduate students pay tuition fees while pursuing full-time, research-oriented master’s and doctoral study at the Vancouver campus. It supports graduate education rather than a separately defined research project, and eligibility depends on whether the student’s graduate program is included in the tuition award arrangements.
Award-holder profiles illustrate research across economics, public health, forestry, anthropology, neuroscience, engineering, zoology, Hispanic studies, and linguistics. Examples include wildfire resilience and Indigenous cultural burning, nutritional effects of caste norms in India, and physical aging in thermoset composites. Students should check their program’s “Tuition & Financial Support” information to confirm inclusion and the applicable award amount.
