Doctoral Excellence Award Western University, in vibrant London, Ontario, delivers an academic and student experience second to none.

Attractive @westernu.ca scholarships are now available to students who may have had an offer rescinded by a doctoral program at an American university. My lab will be thrilled to consider applications from eligible candidates.
