About this opportunity
Program overview and application information
FULL DOCTORAL FUNDING | GLOBAL. UBC’s 4YF gives selected incoming doctoral students stable multi-year funding and tuition support. There is usually no separate direct student application; apply for doctoral admission early and ask the programme about automatic consideration or nomination. IMPORTANT: 1 December is an early admissions-planning checkpoint, not a universal UBC deadline; programme deadlines vary.
