MacKenzie King Open & Travel

These scholarships provide support to graduate students of any Canadian university who are commencing or continuing Master’s or Doctoral studies.

  • The Mackenzie King Open Scholarship provides support for graduate study in any field, in Canada or elsewhere.
  • The Mackenzie King Travelling Scholarship provides support for graduate study in the United States or the United Kingdom in the field of international or industrial relations, including the international or industrial relations aspects of law, history, politics, and economics.

The awards will be based on high academic achievements (typically all A’s or very nearly so), personal qualities, and demonstrated aptitudes. Consideration will also be given to the applicant’s proposed program of study.

Applicants will be required to provide the names of three persons who have an intimate knowledge of your record and ability and are able to give a critical reference evaluation of your plans for graduate study. At least two of these testimonials must be from persons under whom you have taken your major work at university, or from senior colleagues with whom you have been associated in academic teaching or research.
