About the IPN
The Integrated Program in Neuroscience (IPN) at McGill University is an inter-disciplinary, inter-departmental graduate program. With more than 300 graduate students and over 240 IPN professors, the IPN is Canada’s largest graduate neuroscience program. The IPN spans the full spectrum of neuroscientific fields of research, from cellular and molecular neuroscience to behavioral and cognitive neuroscience.
The IPN offers programs of study which lead to either the M.Sc. or Ph.D. degrees. We also have a Rotation Program for first year Ph.D. students. The objective of the M.Sc. and Ph.D. programs is to provide in-depth research experience in a specific area of neuroscience in order to develop individuals capable of independent research and scholarly activity in industry, government or academia. The IPN guarantees our students funding, and we offer generous recruitment awards.
Please contact me if you have any questions or require any additional information.
Kindest regards,
Alexander DeGuise

3M Student Fellowship Call_2018
Dear Undergraduate Students,
The Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, which offers the national 3M teaching awards for faculty, has an equivalent national award for undergraduate and graduate students called the National 3M Student Fellowship. In the past four years a student from UVic has been awarded one of these prestigious awards.
The attached poster provides information about two workshops that will outline the award and our internal UVic process for selection. If you are a qualifying undergraduate or graduate student, (eligibility for the award is set out in the attached poster) consider asking one of your instructors here at UVic if they will nominate you for this award, and then attend one of the workshops. Questions about the process should be directed to Brad Buie, Awards Facilitator, at awardfac@uvic.ca.
It would be wonderful to see one of our UVic students among this year’s winners again.
Regards,
Cynthia Korpan, M.A.
