Re:
Richard Hoeschen Award for B.Sc.(Med) student Supervisors Operating Expenses
Deadline for submission: April 30th, 2015
Presentation of Award: September 3rd, 2015 at the Joe Doupe Memorial Lecture Event
The MMSF (Manitoba Medical Service Foundation) and the St. Boniface General Hospital Research Centre
sponsor this award in the name of Richard Hoeschen. This award commemorates the creative and
innovative spirit of Richard Hoeschen and allows the awarded B.Sc.(Med) Supervisor to offset
operating expenses incurred for the supervisor of a B.Sc. (Medicine) student at the University of Manitoba.
The award can be up to $4,000/per year and is administered by MMSF.
For Supervisors without o t h e r s o u r c e s o f s u p p o r t
Any supervisor interested in applying for this award should be aware that it is intended only for those
individual investigators without external grant support or access to departmental or other funds that could be
used to offset expenses related to a student’s project.
To apply, supervisors should send the below materials via email to:
Program Coordinator, Kimberley Ormiston @ [email protected]
The letter should contain the following information:
• Student’s name and presenting year
• Brief summary of the project
• The amount requested (up to $4,000.00)
• Outline of how the funds will be spent (budget)
• Statement that neither the supervisor nor co-supervisor holds a research grant or has access to an
appropriate level of funding for a student’s project
Only one award will be given each year. If the award is made in the first year of a project’s life, there is no
guarantee that it will be awarded again for the second year. However, if an award is made in year 1, it can be
distributed over the two (2) years of a project’s life. Any unspent funds remaining after the student completes the
program will revert back to the MMSF.
Ethics approval will be required. The same ethics approval received for the student’s project can be
used to cover a Richard Hoeschen Award. The award will be dispersed through an account established by
your department with the Budgets and Grants Office of the University.
**Please note that the award may not be used as a top-up for a student’s stipend.**
