About this Award

The Science Students Association funds were established in 2003 by the association in accordance with its 2002 referendum, while Professor Christian Detellier was dean of the Faculty of Science. Scholarships are available for Faculty of Science undergraduate students. The fund for the Science Students Association Bursaries for Ontario Resident Students was endowed in 2010.

The Science Students Association wishes to thank the Government of Ontario, which helped create this fund through its generous matching contribution.
