ALAN PLUMTREE GRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP IN MECHANICAL & MECHATRONICS ENGINEERING

1. The recipient must be a full-time graduate student who has been awarded an Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) or Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship in Science and Technology (QEII-GSST) and has been accepted into the Graduate program in the Department of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering.
2. Selection to be based on scholastic excellence (minimum 80% average) and demonstrated interest in pursuing a graduate degree with a concentration in Fluid Mechanics and excellence in research through hands-on applications.
3. The goal is that this scholarship be given in conjunction with major external awards that require a matching or enhancement component. For example, the funds earned in the endowment could be matched 2:1 by the Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) or Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship in Science and Technology (QEII-GSST) program as long as this program is in effect.
