Tuition and Financial Support
The UBC and the department offers various awards/scholarships to our Graduate Students!
Graduate Support Initiative (GSI) Awards:
All current graduate students in Mechanical Engineering and applicants who submitted applications by first deadline (see how to apply page) will automatically be considered for 2010-2011 GSI award; there is no need to submit an application for a GSI award.
