2024 University of Alberta Graduate Scholarship

The University of Alberta Graduate Scholarship offers fully funded opportunities for international students to pursue Master’s and PhD programs at one of Canada’s top institutions. Successful applicants will receive comprehensive funding, covering tuition fees and living expenses, renewable annually until program completion, providing a secure and supportive academic journey.

The University of Alberta has a wide array of awards, scholarships & prizes to assist in funding your graduate studies by a variety of sources including the Government of Canada, Government of Alberta, and the generosity of the university’s many donors. Some awards are exclusive to specific programs.

The scholarship involves the exploration of the additive manufacturing of zirconia-based ceramics for use in dental applications. It is a joint project between the Alberta Next-Generation Additive Manufacturing (ANGAM) Lab (Dr. Yakout) and the Craniofacial Biomechanics and Biomaterials Research (CBBR) Group (Dr. Romanyk) at the University of Alberta.

The project will focus on developing optimized manufacturing routes (e.g. feedstock material and post-processing) to obtain targeted outcomes in dental applications (e.g. superior mechanical performance with biological and esthetic considerations). Necessary research will involve hands-on training and methods related to additive manufacturing and advanced characterization from a range of perspectives.
