Paul and Helen TRUSSELL Scholarship in Engineering

Award descriptionScholarships totalling $10,000 have been made available annually through a gift from the Tri-University's Paul and Helen Trussell Science Student Endowment Fund, held at the Vancouver Foundation, for outstanding graduate students in the Faculty of Applied Science who are from the Kootenay-Boundary region. If no candidates from the Kootenay-Boundary region are identified, the scholarships may be given to recipients from areas located at least 50 kilometers away from any university in British Columbia. This scholarship was established to help students develop the skills needed to meet the challenges of a growing knowledge-based economy in British Columbia and the whole of Canada. The scholarships are made on the recommendation of the Faculty of Applied Science, in consultation with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies.
