This fund supports international graduate students who have been forced to leave their country in order to escape war, violations of human rights, conflict and/or persecution.
"The University of Calgary supports a network of international students within our diverse and inclusive graduate student community. We are committed to removing barriers for students facing volatile situations in their home countries."
- Dr. Tara Beattie, Dean and Vice-Provost, Graduate Studies
