I. Reorganization of the Senate Committee on Scholarships, 

Awards and Bursaries (SCSAB) 

In the Fall of 1985 an initiative was developed by the Dean 

of Graduate Studies and the Associate Vice-President, Academic, 

to reorganize the Senate Committee on Scholarships, Awards and 

Bursaries. 

?

The reorganization identified the Dean and the 

Associate Vice-President as members of SCSAB, ex-officio, 

and established three committees; the Policy Committee, the 

Undergraduate Adjudication Committee and the Graduate 

Adjudication Committee. The reorganization also established 

the Dean as Chairman of the Graduate Adjudication Committee and 

the Associate Vice-President as Chairman of the Undergraduate 

Adjudication Committee. The Chairman of the Policy Committee 

is elected by Senate. The Chairman of SCSAB raised the issue 

as to whether SCSAB continued to exist after the re-organization,. 

with the three committees as sub-committees of SCSAB. The 

interpretation of the Secretary of Senate was that SCSAE no 

longer exists. 

?

The terms of reference of the.-three independent 

committees of Senate are included in this report with their 

current membership. ?

toward completion of degree requirements and the maintenance of 

exceptional scholarship. 

?

The recipient must normally be registered 

in a full-time program throughout the period of the award. During 

the tenure of the award, the recipient may hold the equivalent of a

awarded to students who are, or will be, registered in a Master's 

or Doctoral program, providing they have achieved a minimum academic 

standing equivalent to a cumulative grade point average of 3.50. 

In addition to this scholarship recipients may concurrently receive: 

a) one T.A.ship or b) one R.A.ship or c) other paid work of an 

academic nature. 

A recipient is required to reserve one semester of the period

C) Graduate Research Fellowships 

Graduate Research Fellowships are awarded to students engaged in research 

related to their thesis. The value is $3,000, for one semester, for 

both Master's and Doctoral level students. 

D) President's. Research Stipend 

The intent of the stipend is to permit students to devote full-time 

to the writing or completion of a thesis or its equivalent. Stipends 

are administered on the basis of the following priorities: 

a)

All Ph.D students who are in the process of writing a thesis, or 

its equivalent, and who have no other major scholarships, T.A 

or R.A. support. 

b)

All Master's students who are in the process of writing a thesis, 

?

or its equivalent, who have a CGPA of 3.50 or greater and who have 

no other major scholarship, T.A. or R.A. support. 

c)

All Master's students who have CGPA of 3.2 or greater and who 

have no other major scholarship, T.A. or R.A. support. 

d)

Other cases that may be considered by SCSAB. 

The current value of the stipend is $2,400 for the Master's program 

and $2,900 for the Ph.D program. 

E) Special Graduate Entrance-Scholarships 

During the past several years it became apparent that there was a 

need for a special graduate entrance scholarship which could be part 

of a total funding package. The SCSAB discussed this matter and agreed 

to implement a procedure whereby a department could negotiate .a 

scholarship component of a long or short term commitment to very

exceptional students who departments would like to attract to SFU. 

These requests for such funding are initiated by the Chairman of 

the Department with an outline of the combinations of support 

proposed, durations of the commitments and a brief description of 

the student and his or 

her

background. 

Upon receipt of such requests the Graduate Adjudication Committee 

determines whther

invites the Chairman of the Department to a special meeting for

the purpose of discussing the viability and terms of a negotiated 

scholarship.

J)

Private Scholarships and Bursaries 

Various private scholarships and bursaries are administered by 

SFU for its Graduate students. 

K)

Work-Study Program 

The SFU Work-Study Program is designed to provide part-time 

employment which is mutually beneficial to students and the 

University. Every effort is made to provide career-related 

job experience, which is primarily of a research nature. 

The Work-Study Program is intended normally to supplement 

Provincial and Federal student loan programs. 

A student is eligible for Work-Study if he/she meets the 

following criteria:

Some students are identified for Work-Study and are contacted by 

mail by the Financial Aid and Awards Office, as a result of the 

assessment of their student loans. Others are contacted as a 

• ? 

result of having been recommended by faculty members or 

departmental supervisors (Project Supervisors). Occasionally 

Work-Study awards are made by direct application by students to 

the Financial Aid and Awards Office. 

Once a student's eligibility for Work-Study is established, he/she 

is referred by the Financial Aid and Awards Office to the on-campus 

Canada Employment Centre for possible placement in an approved 

Work-Study project. 

The rate of pay is established annually. 

Once a student's Work-Study award is established, and given the 

normal hourly rate, supervisors and student employees arrange a 

schedule of working hours suitable to both.

IV. Overview of Changes in the Graduate Program beginning 1987-1 

During the past 20 years there has evolved in this University a program 

of scholarships, awards and bursaries which has retained its flexibility 

to respond to the changing needs of students. Simon Fraser University 

has been particularly supportive of scholarships, awards and bursaries 

and now allocates a greater proportion of its operating budget to 

student support than does any other university in Canada. 

The scholarships program as it has developed over the last 20 years 

has been well received with the university and I believe has functioned 

well. ? 

There have been relatively few complaints. SCSAB has introduced 

a constellation of mechanisms for responding immediately to unique-needs, 

especially in respect to the recruitment of both undergraduate and graduate 

students. The committee has introduced the Graduate Research Fellowship, 

made Open Graduate Scholarships tenable for one year and established 

several different entrance scholarships some of which carry two and three 

year commitments. ? 

Many other innovations intended to maximize the 

ability of the program to deal with the diverse needs of the University 

community have also been developed. 

?

There have been some problems 

which emerged due to restraint in the context of increasing demands, 

but these have not been serious or ongoing. 

?

The explicit policy of 

SCSAB was to increasingly move toward awards which made longer term 

commitments and to emphasise entrance scholarships in an attempt to 

attract students to this university. In addition the committee has 

implemented a more equal allocation of funds to graduate students and 

the split is now about 50% between undergraduate and graduate support. 

- 13 - 

IV. continued 

The committee has also encouraged the development of Work-Study programs 

at the graduate levels and increased allocations to graduate bursary 

programs (non-repayable grants based on need), both of which add to total 

graduate student support. 

However, recently there have been increasing pressures to change the 

graduate student support system to one which is simpler and allows for 

longer term planning on the part of both departments and students. During 

the past many years there has also been much discussion of the role of 

the President's Research Stipend (known as The Stipend) in respect to 

whether it serves its original function and whether the funds it utilises 

could be better used in other graduate scholarship programs. The Dean 

of Graduate Studies initiated a series of discussions focused on the 

changes in the program which would deal with these concerns. 

The proposed changes were circulated to all Chairmen, Deans, V.P.s and 

the President for comment. 

After considering the responses received the Policy Committee approved 

the following and agreed that the changes outlined below be ratified by 

Senate. -- -- -

E)

To allocate each year a specific number of 1-semester awards to each

department will be ensured at least three 1-semester awards per annum. 

F)

To allow departments to utilize their allocation of 1-semester awards, 

and to recommend 1, 2, or 3-semester awards for individual students. 

The Graduate Adjudication Awards Committee will make final decisions 

of individual awards based on departmental recommendations. 

C) To retain the Special Entrance Scholarships.

To retain approximately 10% of the graduate awards budget for 

discretionary allocation by the Policy Committee in allocation of 

funds for Special Arrangement Students, Special Entrance Scholarships 

and program development.

Awards are usually monetary, in nature, but may also be issued 

in the form of prizes or medals. They are awarded in 

recognition of extraordinary intellectual, cultural, social 

or aesthetic contributions to the university community at large. 

Awards are given in the areas of Athletics, Recreation, the 

Arts and for service at large. These awards range in value, 

as determined by the terms of reference of each award.

Government assistance has first been determined. Bursaries are 

normally awarded up to $500 or $600 and are subject to a satisfactory 

academic standing.
