Patricia Marchak International Research Scholarship in Sociology

Candidates enrolled in the M.A. or Ph.D. program in the UBC Department of Sociology who wish to conduct fieldwork research outside of Canada may be considered.

Scholarships are endowed from a fund; award amounts vary.

Recommendations are made by the Department of Sociology in consultation with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. There is no separate application.

The scholarships honour Dr. Patricia Marchak (Ph.D. '70), former Dean of the Faculty of Arts, a distinguished scholar, journalist, and human rights advocate who showed that high-quality sociological research can be conducted anywhere.
