Applications are now open for the Mackenzie King Scholarships to study in Canada. The program was created as an independent trust under the will of the late Rt. Hon. William Mackenzie King (1874-1950). This program to study in North America provides two main types of scholarships for graduate studies: the Open Scholarship and the Travelling Scholarship.
Mackenzie Open Scholarship is available to graduates of Canadian universities who pursue graduate study in any discipline, in Canada or elsewhere. One Open Scholarship is awarded each year. The value has recently been about $8500 but it is subject to change.
The Travelling Scholarship is open to graduates (meaning holders of a degree) of any Canadian university who engage in (commence or continue) graduate study (master’s or doctoral), in the United States or the United Kingdom, of international relations or industrial relations (including the international or industrial relations aspects of law, history, politics, and economics).
