Dr. Karl Ivarson Soil Science Scholarship

Canadian citizens or permanent residents registered full time in their second or later year of graduate study in soil science or a related field (agriculture, agro-ecology, resource management, environment, geology, or similar) at a recognized Canadian university may apply. First-year PhD students are eligible if they studied soil science at the master's level. Previous recipients are not eligible for a subsequent award. Include a university letter confirming enrolment.

One scholarship of $2,000 is available. Applications are submitted electronically through the Canadian Society of Soil Science.

The scholarship was created by Dr. Karl C. Ivarson through a gift to what is now the Canadian Foundation for Food and Agricultural Education; CSSS has administered it since 2024.
