Dobbin Scholarships 2013 - 2014

Since its establishment in 1993, The Ireland Canada University Foundation has awarded Dobbin Scholarships to Irish and Canadian scholars and academics whose research has the potential to contribute to the rich academic and cultural relationship which exists between these two countries.

Founded by Dr. Craig Dobbin of Newfoundland and Dr. Patrick Hillery, former President of Ireland, the Foundation was recognised in a 2004 International Memorandum of Understanding by the Taoiseach, Mr. Bertie Ahern T.D. and Canadian Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Paul Martin M.P.

The amount of the award varies from €2,600 to €4,200 depending on duration of research stay. The scholarships are generously sponsored by Craig C.
