UBC Affiliated Fellowships Doctoral Program

The UBC Affiliated Fellowships Doctoral Program awards merit-based fellowships to outstanding doctoral students across all disciplines, supporting both current and incoming full-time PhD students at the University of British Columbia. The program awards approximately 50 fellowships annually and can be combined with other funding sources such as RA/TA positions and Four-Year Fellowships. The Killam Doctoral Scholarship is also available within this competition.
