Since 2004, these awards have recognized and rewarded Canada’s brightest minds.
There is one first prize which includes a $10,000 cheque plus access to a professionally designed logo provided by private-sector sponsor HiretheWorld.com. There are also two $5,000 runner-up prizes. Honourable mention prizes may also be awarded if applications are deemed meritorious. The winners will receive a cheque and a certificate at an event hosted by NSERC.
