Eva and Herschel Gora Bursary
This renewable bursary, valued at $4,000 annually, was established in honour of Eva and Herschel (Harry) Gora. Eva and Harry were World War II Holocaust survivors who held a deep belief in the value of higher education. The bursary will be awarded to a full time student of Indigenous heritage who is enrolled in either the Faculty of Engineering, Faculty of Nursing, School of Pharmacy, Faculty of Science, or School of Social Work at Memorial University of Newfoundland. Students can demonstrate their Indigenous heritage through provision of a membership card or demonstrate that they are part of their Indigenous community by providing a letter from a community leader or Elder in their Indigenous community. Eligible students must meet the minimum academic requirements for a bursary as defined by the University. This bursary is renewable for an additional three years, four years in total, provided the successful candidate continues to maintain the academic requirements for a bursary. It will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries, and Awards. An application is required and is available at the Scholarships and Awards Office website.
Gosine Family Scholarship in Technical Communications
This scholarship was established by a generous donation from the Gosine Family to reflect their long association with the University, and particularly with Memorial University of Newfoundland’s Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science. Raymond F. Gosine completed the Diploma in Engineering at Memorial prior to completing his engineering degree at McGill University. As of the creation of this scholarship, Raymond G. Gosine (Raymond F. and Teresa’s son) had completed his B. Eng. degree in 1986, and is Memorial’s vice-president (research), pro tempore and a professor and former dean of Memorial’s Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science; Philippa Gosine, their older granddaughter, completed her B. Eng. in 2015; Anna, their other granddaughter, is an Engineering student at Memorial; and their daughter-in-law, Jane Gosine, is a professor of Music at the University. Valued at a portion of the income on the endowment, one or more scholarships will be awarded annually to students in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science whose written work, including co-op work term reports has shown significant improvement. The recipient(s) must meet the minimum academic requirements for a scholarship as defined by the University. This scholarship will be awarded by the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards on the recommendation of the Dean, Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science.
