Why Trent School of Graduate Studies?

One of Canada’s Most Research Intensive Universities

Trent University has consistently been recognized as a centre of high calibre research and scholarship. The total research revenue at Trent continues to grow while the success of Trent faculty in attracting research funding from diverse sources is remarkable. Trent’s eight Canada Research Chairs cover a broad spectrum of disciplines, reflecting the institution’s careful balance between research in the humanities, sciences and social sciences. As federal and provincial governments continue to make knowledge transfer and outreach a priority for post-secondary institutions, Trent will continue to draw on its key strengths to further its research accomplishments and reputation nationally and internationally.

Financial Support

Students are encouraged to apply for scholarships, particularly the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS), the Tri Council’s Canada Graduate Scholarships Masters and Canada Graduate Scholarships Doctoral Program.Visit trentu.ca/graduatestudies/tuition-awards-funding for more information on available financial supports.
