Special Initiative Award in Computer Science (Any Faculty)

Awarded to any undergraduate student with a year 1 average of at least 70% entering the second year of any program in computer science, or in a double area of concentration or joint honors program involving computer science and any other program.

Value: $500 to be applied toward tuition

Effective: June 1998

Background:

The recently approved UWO budget plan included a proposal to expand enrolment in software engineering programs and specializations in Computer Science and in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Coincident with the approval of 深夜福利站's plan, the Ontario government, in its own budget, announced the "Access to Opportunities" program aimed at increasing the number of graduates across the province in areas of computing and information technology, including computer science and electrical, computing, and software engineering. Once their plans are approved by the government, universities that substantially expand enrolment in these programs will receive sizeable continuing base budget allocations ($5000 and $3500 per additional engineering and computer science student, respectively) and will be eligible for private-sector/government matched one-time grants for infrastructure investment. In addition to students enrolled solely in such programs, eligible enrolment increases will include students in double areas of concentration and joint honors program that include computer science.

Given the compatibility of the Access to Opportunities program and 深夜福利站's own plans in this area, proposals are now being developed to attract support under this government program. These plans will include allocations of funds to support additional faculty and staff appointments and one-time equipment support for the enlarged programs based on anticipated funds from the Access to Opportunities program. In addition, areas outside of the Departments of Computer Science and Electrical and Computer Engineering will be allocated funds based on increased enrolment in double areas of concentration and joint honors programs with computer science (both BSc and BA programs). These plans are being developed with the relevant Chairs and Deans and have been presented in preliminary form at SCUP.

One aspect of these plans will be to pass on some portion of the additional funding to the students in these programs. Discussions with the Deans and Chairs involved indicate that it is feasible to put in place a Special Initiative Award for Computer Science for the fall of 1998, but that further discussion will be necessary in order to develop an appropriate parallel program for students in Engineering Science. A formal proposal for these students will be brought forward in the fall of 1998 for implementation in 1999-00. This Special Initiative Award is possible only because of this program-linked government funding opportunity.

Eve Harp and Judith Wiley Classical Studies Travel Award (Faculty of Graduate Studies, Arts Division [Classical Studies])

Awarded annually based on academic achievement to a graduate or undergraduate student in Classical Studies, to assist with travel costs for research at libraries or sites anywhere in the world, but especially Greece or Italy. Preference will be given to graduate students. The recipient will be selected by the Faculty of Arts Scholarship Committee in consultation with the Graduate Chair of Classical Studies. This award was established through Foundation 深夜福利站 by Eve Harp (BA '92) and Judith Wiley.

Value: $500

Effective: May 1997

Martin J. Bass - P.S.I. Foundation OSOTF Awards (3) (Faculty of Graduate Studies, Biosciences Division, [Family Medicine])

Awarded annually to part-time graduate students in the Master of Clinical Science Program offered by the Department of Family Medicine who have their Family Practice Certification (or equivalent certification from another country), have a minimum B average or equivalent, and demonstrate the greatest financial need. Application forms can be obtained from the Department of Family Medicine, Graduate Studies Program, and must be completed and returned by August 15. Selection will be made by the Director of Graduate Studies in Family Medicine in consultation with a committee. These awards have been made possible by a generous contribution from The Physicians' Services Incorporated Foundation in honor of the late Dr. Martin J. Bass (MSc '76).

Value: $2,000

Value: $450
