The funding varies by award. For undergraduates, the Famille-Doray scholarship gives $5,000 for a 14-week summer research internship, and the Julien-Théoret scholarship gives $2,500 a year to a student facing academic and personal challenges. Other awards, such as the Constance-van Eeden prize and the Intact Corporation Assurance scholarship, do not have a fixed dollar amount posted — contact Université de Montréal — Département de mathématiques et statistique to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As these are scholarships and prizes, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This support is for you if you are an undergraduate or graduate student in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics (Mathematics, Statistics or Actuarial Science) who shows academic excellence, community involvement or financial need. For graduate students: every doctoral student in Mathematics or Statistics who meets the eligibility criteria receives four years of integrated funding of at least $18,000 a year, made up of scholarships, teaching assistantships and teaching assignments. Graduate students can also win the Christian-Léger scholarship ($5,000, for a student starting a thesis-based master's in Statistics), the Serge-Tardif scholarship ($5,000, graduate student in Statistics), the Serge-Bissonnette scholarship ($5,000, graduate student in Mathematics) and the Alexis-Gerbeau scholarship ($5,000, master's in Mathematics after at least six course credits; first recipient expected in 2027). Research supervisors often offer funding from their grants, so contact potential supervisors early. No specific deadlines are posted publicly — before you start your application, check Université de Montréal — Département de mathématiques et statistique's program page or call their office to confirm when applications open and close this year. You should monitor your institutional email address, as the department sends application details there each year.
