One in four Canadians holds a bachelor카지노 게임 컬렉션�s degree or higher according to Statistics Canada. Yet for Indigenous people in Canada, the number is just one in ten - making it more of a challenge for Indigenous learners wishing to obtain a graduate education.

To help support Indigenous students seeking their masters or doctorate, the School of Graduate Studies has earmarked additional funding, and introduced a new admissions policy for Indigenous applicants in keeping with the spirit of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) task force카지노 게임 컬렉션�s report.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�These actions are a step toward increasing access to graduate studies,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Brenda Brouwer, Vice-Provost and Dean (Graduate Studies). 카지노 게임 컬렉션�They align with increasing inclusivity in our graduate community and promoting opportunities for research and scholarship that actively engages Indigenous communities.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

Among the changes, the value of entrance scholarships for Indigenous students has been increased from $10,000 to $15,000. Ten such awards are adjudicated each year.

Additionally, an was approved this year to encourage applications from Indigenous candidates and support access to graduate studies.

The regulation applies to all graduate programs in the School of Graduate Studies, and it means that the evaluation of applications from Indigenous candidates will consider academic, cultural, personal, and professional background, along with other factors indicative of capacity for graduate study.

To be considered under this regulation, applicants must self-identify as Indigenous upon application for admission defined as First Nation, Métis, and Inuit Peoples.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Financial supports such as the Robert Sutherland Fellowship, which I received in my first year of doctoral studies, and other awards with allocations designated for Indigenous students are invaluable for promoting the advancement and development of Aboriginal communities throughout Canada,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Alex Veinot, a PhD candidate in chemistry. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�While Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 has made significant improvements in supporting its Indigenous students both culturally and financially, there are still issues that need further attention in order to greatly improve the experience of Indigenous students at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s.

The School of Graduate Studies has also set aside funding resources to support graduate students conducting research that requires travel to Indigenous communities. Masters and doctoral students engaged in Indigenous-related research can apply for Graduate Dean카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Travel Grant for Indigenous Field Research to help offset the costs.

These awards are similar to the Dean카지노 게임 컬렉션�s Travel Awards for Doctoral Field Research, but address a particular need linked with conducting responsible and respectful research with Indigenous communities. These awards are not restricted to PhD students.

It is expected the first applications for these travel awards will be submitted in the coming academic year in response to a call for applications from the SGS.

To further raise awareness about the distinctive requirements of research collaborations with Indigenous communities, the School of Graduate Studies has partnered with the Aboriginal Council of Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s 카지노게임사이트 (ACQU) to organize a series of workshops.

The first workshop was held in October 2017 alongside the Indigenous Research Symposium and attracted nearly 90 student, faculty, and community participants. A second workshop will be held in November 2018 and will focus on issues of ownership and control in research.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�We are working with the ACQU and Four Directions Aboriginal Student Centre to enhance our outreach, and to facilitate research with and by Indigenous communities,카지노 게임 컬렉션� says Marta Straznicky, Associate Dean (School of Graduate Studies). 카지노 게임 컬렉션�It is important we build these relationships in a manner that respects Indigenous knowledge, research methodologies, and cultural protocols.카지노 게임 컬렉션�

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Respecting different ways of knowing and facilitating uptake and mobilization of the scholarly work requires that consideration be given to how the work is presented,카지노 게임 컬렉션� she adds. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�The affords flexibility in how the research is presented for alignment with the nature of the research conducted.카지노 게임 컬렉션�
