Increased Graduate Student Scholarship and Postdoctoral Fellowship funding.

During the summer, regarding the coming increases to the values of tri-agency scholarships and fellowships and recommendations for graduate student and postdoctoral fellow funding levels.

The annual value of all current and new master鈥檚 and doctoral student scholarships will increase to $27,000 and $40,000, respectively, and current and new postdoctoral fellowships will increase to $70,000. This award increase will take effect for new and ongoing awards on September 1, 2024.

Tri-agency scholarship and fellowship recipients who received their awards in Spring 2024 will receive a revised 鈥楢uthorization for Funding鈥� document that reflect the increased value of scholarships/fellowships this fall. 聽聽

When budgeting for trainee stipends in grant applications, applicants are encouraged to ask for a budget that is consistent with the research project proposed, including the need to pay students a fair stipend in consideration of the new award values.聽

CIHR will continue to instruct reviewers that they are not to adjudicate the stipend amounts requested, but rather the number of students proposed to do the work. CIHR staff present during review will intervene to prevent budget cuts that contravene the CIHR position on paying trainees a fair wage.

Formatting and budget
