Undergraduate award and funding opportunities

Undergraduate award and funding opportunities are typically based on academic merit, extra-curricular involvement, and/or financial need.

Award eligibility

Award eligibility is considered through two mechanisms:

  • Automatic Assessment: Using data reported to the Faculty, the eligibility of all Price Faculty of Engineering students is reviewed and considered for these awards.
     
  • Application: Students submit an application and/or additional information in order to be considered for these awards.

Eligibility criteria may vary across individual awards; students must meet all award eligibility criteria (as outlined in the award's terms of reference) in order to be selected for, and to retain, an award.

Process

Each summer, the Price Faculty of Engineering will notify all current students via UM email that applications are open for any awards requiring written application. Once a student has been selected for an award (both automatic assessment and application-based awards), the UM Financial Aid and Awards Office will notify the successful recipient and provide instructions on how to accept or decline the award through their Aurora Student account. Students will be able to view a credit in the fee section of their Aurora Student account once the award has been allocated.

Award and funding overview

Overview

The following award and funding opportunities are available to new and continuing students in the Price Faculty of Engineering:

  • Entrance awards for new students entering the Faculty directly from high school

Scholarships and Prizes

Scholarships and prizes

Scholarships and prizes are primarily awarded on the basis of academic performance in a particular program, year, or course (additional requirements may apply).

Non-Application-Based Awards: There is no action required by students to apply for these awards; all Engineering students are automatically considered for any non-application-based awards for which they qualify. Eligibility for these awards is typically based on aspects such as program, year of study, gender, citizenship, and academic performance.

Application-Based Awards: Students are required to apply for these awards by submitting additional information for consideration via UM Learn; this information may include an essay, question responses, reference letters, or another form of written input. Eligibility for these awards is typically based on aspects such as academic performance, community involvement, leadership, and extra-curricular activities.

To be eligible for most awards, new and returning students must maintain full-time enrollment (minimum 80% course load) in the year in which the award is tenable. There are a select number of awards offered for part-time students registered in both Fall and Winter Terms.

Students will be notified via UM email once applications open (typically in late July/early August each year). 

Bursaries

Bursaries

Each year, the University of Manitoba offers over $10 million in bursaries to students who demonstrate financial need and meet specific academic requirements.

To be considered for bursaries, all students must first complete the University of Manitoba General Bursary Application. Once this application has been submitted, students may then submit additional information via UM Learn for Price Faculty of Engineering-specific bursaries that require supplemental application; this information may include an essay, question responses, reference letters, or another form of written input.

For those bursaries that do not require supplemental information, no further action is required; all Engineering students who submitted the University of Manitoba General Bursary Application are automatically considered for any bursaries for which they qualify.
 

To be eligible for most bursaries, new and returning students must maintain full-time enrollment (minimum 60% course load) in the year in which the bursary is tenable. There are a select number of bursaries offered for part-time students registered in both Fall and Winter Terms.

Students will be notified via UM email once applications open (typically in late September each year).
