Canada Launches $100 Million Scholarship Fund and Partnerships to Attract Indian Students

Canada is enhancing its appeal to Indian students and researchers through a new Canada-India Talent and Innovation Strategy. Central to this is a C$100 million scholarship fund administered by the University of Toronto, offering up to 200 fully funded scholarships across various academic levels. The strategy also includes 13 new university partnerships and the establishment of three hybrid study centres in India, focusing on fields like artificial intelligence, healthcare, and sustainability. This initiative responds to uncertainties in US research funding and visa policies, aiming to provide stable, long-term academic and research opportunities.
