Oil and Gas Week Scholarship

Oil and Gas Week Scholarship

Valued at $1,000 each, these undergraduate scholarships are established by a gift over three years from the organizers of Oil and Gas Week, a program of events held annually in St. John's, NL for the purpose of promoting the oil and gas industry.

Two scholarships will be awarded each year. To be eligible, students must be enrolled full-time beyond the first year of an undergraduate program in the Department of Earth Sciences, the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science, or the Faculty of Business Administration. Eligible candidates must also have scholarship standing and preference will be given to students who graduated from a high school in Newfoundland and Labrador outside of the metropolitan St. Johnas area.

Each year the two recipients must be from different faculties, with each identified academic unit to be represented no more than twice in the three year period of the term of the fund. The scholarships will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards, based on a recommendation from the appropriate academic discipline.
