The Foundation for Registered Nurses of Manitoba Inc. established in 1993 to support education for registered nurses, has established a fund at The University of Manitoba. The Manitoba Scholarship and Bursary Initiative has made a contribution to this fund. The available annual income from the fund will support both scholarships and awards for registered nurses who are continuing studies in health-related
fields at a graduate level.
Foundation for Registered Nurses of Manitoba Inc. Graduate Scholarship (#44753)
Two scholarships will be offered each year to students who:
(1) are registered nurses and are enrolled full-time in a graduate program at The University of
Manitoba;
(2) have completed at least one full year of study at the graduate level and have achieved a
minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.5 (as calculated via University of Manitoba
Graduate Fellowship guidelines);
(3) are conducting research in a health-related field;
(4) intend to maintain an active nursing registration following graduation.
If an applicant is not enrolled in a Graduate Program in Nursing, they will be required to provide documentation of how their studies apply to nursing.
Foundation for Registered Nurses of Manitoba Inc. Graduate Award (#44754)
Six Awards shall be split equally and will be offered each year to students who:
(1) are registered nurses and are enrolled full-time or part-time in any year of a graduate
program at The University of Manitoba;
(2) have achieved a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0;
(3) are pursuing graduate education in health-related fields;
(4) intend to maintain an active nursing registration following graduation;
The selection committee will have the discretion to determine the number and value of Awards (#44754).
Any candidate who applies for both the Award and Scholarship, if eligible, can only receive one or the other, but not both.
