After a long and difficult negotiation with Canadian partners, the Office of External Relations at UIT has achieved the first glorious achievement which is persuading the University of Regina (UoR) to sign the MOU with UIT successfully.
This MOU signing is the most challengingly compulsory requirement for UIT students to have a chance with SEED scholarship.
As this is the first victory for UIT students; however, there is some obstacles facing ahead for UIT students and UIT staff. In order to apply for SEED, the Canadian partner, which is University of Regina, has to be the one that files the SEED application (not UIT nor UIT students). And the University of Regina’s deadline for this scholarship program was February 29, 2024.
The Office of External Relations has been working hard to persuade University of Regina to have an exception for UIT’s students by extending the deadline for UIT’s students.
Luckily, University of Regina has announced today that, in honour of the new partnership between UIT and UoR, it will accept UIT’s request for the submission extension.
However, University of Regina requires a very tight deadline for UIT to submit the nomination today.
Therefore, we would like to announce that the deadline for UIT’s students to submit the application form to the Office of External Relations (A.125) is this afternoon 3:00 PM.
Please submit your application in both hard copy and PDF format
Our hotline: 0938 965 840 (Ms. Linh)
Below are the required documents that UIT’s students must submit to the Office of External Relations (from now until the deadline, the Office will open through the lunch time to support the students):
Should your students wish to apply for the Canada-ASEAN Scholarship and Educational Exchanges for Development (SEED) scholarship the institution must submit the following documents as stated on the website.
If they are undergraduate researchers, they must identify a host supervisor willing to host and supervise them during their research and provide the following information;
- confirmation of the name of the faculty member that has agreed to host them.
- dates of the proposed research.
- name and brief explanation of the research they plan to participate in.
Attached are the 2024-2025 Application Guide and UoR Fact Sheet – 2024 – 2025.
(Noted that the Fact Sheet 2024 – 2025 are for general Student Exchange, not for SEED, therefore, the deadline inside UoR Fact Sheet is NOT applicable to this SEED nomination.)
