How does the PD Committee support multi-year programs, i.e. Doctoral studies?
The PD Committee fully endorses individuals pursuing multi-year Advanced Degree programs. However, because the level of funding available for PD grants is received from various sources and varies from year to year, the PD Committee isunable to guarantee multi-year funding. Accordingly, applications for financial assistance for multi-year programs must be submitted at least annually. In the experience of the Committee, multi-year programs often change in both approach and objectives, and therfore require ongoing review.
