No application is necessary. To be eligible, students must have applied for all scholarships, fellowships, bursaries, and other external funding for which they are eligible, and must accept all such funding awarded to them. Department Research Funds are available only to full-time, resident, degree students who are making satisfactory progress. All students accepted for admission and all continuing students will be automatically considered for support. No application is necessary.
Departmental funding is limited to five years from first registration.
Two weeks summer vacation may be taken. In addition to other financial aid, graduate students are eligible for teaching assistantships, tutoring or marking undergraduate computer science courses. Our current needs for TAs are such that all DCS graduate students who are competent TAs are hired. Each student is limited to one teaching assistantship per term, three terms per year. Students holding scholarships or fellowships must observe any income limits or part-time work limits that may be imposed on them by the conditions of their awards.
