Foreign Government Awards Program
Awards available to Canadians for graduate study abroad
As part of the implementation of cultural agreements with the Government of Canada, the governments of Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Korea, Mexico, the Philippines, and Russia will offer awards to Canadian graduate students tenable in 2005-2006. These awards have been combined to form the Foreign Government Awards (FGA) Program, which is administered by the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE).
The governments of Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and Spain also offer awards to Canadian students. However, the embassies of these countries in Canada are responsible for the administration of their scholarships.
The Foreign Government Awards are intended to assist Canadian students in furthering their studies or conducting research abroad at the master's, doctoral or post-doctoral level, and normally cover a period of at least six months. The Government of Italy offers short-term scholarships (less than two months) for Italian language and culture courses. Most countries offer a wide selection of disciplines to which awards may be applied, but not all countries offer awards for all disciplines. The governments of Japan and Russia also offer awards for undergraduate studies.
Although all of the awards are similar in nature, the value of each award is determined by the offering country. Most awards cover travel to and from the host country, tuition and registration fees, and a monthly living allowance. Several awards also cover books, mandatory health and accident insurance and various other allowances. Complete details on all awards appear on the following pages.
The selection process varies, whether the competitions are administered by the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE) -- for awards tenable in Chile, Colombia, France, Germany, Korea, Mexico, the Philippines, and Russia -- or by the Embassies in Canada of Italy, Japan, the Netherlands and Spain. Details on the selection process are provided in the following pages. The final selection of awards will be made by the host countries.
Deadlines for submission of applications also vary whether the competitions are administered by CBIE or by each of the Embassies in Canada. Please also note that the forms provided on this Web site can only be used for those competitions administered by CBIE. Forms for those competitions directly administered by the Embassies in Canada of participating countries must be obtained from the relevant Embassy or Consulate, as indicated in the following pages.
