Funding and Scholarships
The University of Toronto through the Department of Geography provides full funding for all PhD students (years one to four) and all students in a Geography Master's program (for one year). The funding "package" can consist of a combination of Federal and Provincial government scholarships, University of Toronto Fellowships, teaching assistantships and/or research assistantships. Students are strongly encouraged to apply for external awards/scholarships. Teaching and research assistantships not only assist in funding, but also provide valuable work experience. University of Toronto Fellowships made available through the Department of Geography offer generous support. Renewal of funding for PhD students, where applicable, requires the demonstration of satisfactory progress towards the degree.
