Dean of Graduate Studies champions federal support for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows at Parliament

Additional funding is needed to ensure McMaster and other universities across Canada can support graduate students and postdoctoral fellows in the current inflationary environment, McMaster’s vice-provost and dean of graduate studies told a House of Commons committee this week.
Steve Hranilovic emphasized that additional funding is also needed for McMaster to remain competitive as a global university that attracts top talent. He travelled to Ottawa on June 15 to address members of the Standing Committee on Science and Research (SRRS).
During a session on the Government of Canada’s Graduate Scholarship and Post-Doctoral Fellowship Programs, Hranilovic shared feedback from the cross-campus consultations held by McMaster’s Task Force on Graduate Funding with the committee, including from the recent town hall, roundtable meetings and submitted online.
