Are you a Permanent Resident or Citizen of Canada? *

Yes
No

For payroll reasons, only Permanent Residents and Citizens of Canada are able to be selected for the fully funded program this year. However, we are still providing our “Application Scaffolding Program” to international students who apply. The Application Scaffolding Activities guide you through the process of preparing an application for a PhD program in experimental psychology, management, or neuroscience. International applicants do not need to complete the full application, out of respect for your time. International applicants will only be asked for keywords that may match their interests below, whereas domestic applicants are asked for the full application.

Please describe your race or ethnicity: *

PREP is a diversity initiative that supports students who identify as Indigenous, Black, or racialized and who are interested in PhD programs in management, psychology, or neuroscience.

If you identify as Indigenous or Black, then would you please check the relevant box(es) below?

Indigenous person from Turtle Island/North America (e.g., First Nations, Inuk or Inuit, Métis)
Black (e.g., African, American, Canadian, Caribbean, etc.)

PREP is open to all Indigenous, Black, and racialized students, but there is a special priority on Indigenous and Black students for admission to the full program.

Please select at least three keywords that best match your research interests. *

These keywords were originally generated by one or more faculty members, and they assist us in making good matches between students and mentors. Please choose at least three keywords of things that interest you (maximum number of choices is 10).

What type of research opportunity are you seeking? (check all that apply)

Independent Research Experience: You would be involved in most aspects of design, implementation, analysis, and/or reporting
Advanced Research Experience: You will likely not be involved in design and will mostly help faciltate the project while you’re in the lab, but you will be able to ask your own questions of the data and look at it yourself
Advanced Research Assistant: You would play a more managerial/senior Research Assistant role in project administration, but you would mostly be helping facilitate a project
Standard Research Assistant: You will do the same thing that other undergraduate Research Assistants do in the faculty member’s lab
Entry-level Research Assistant: You will do the same things that other Research Assistants do in their first semester in the faculty member’s lab
Other

Please indicate the type(s) of research opportunity that you are seeking. You can check more than one, if you are open to different kinds of research experiences. The research opportunities available in different labs ranges from entry-level research positions to research positions where you contribute to the research questions–because PREP students come to us with a range in past research experiences and what they are seeking with this experience. Therefore, there is no judgment as to how you rate the type of research opportunity that you are seeking. This will help us better match you with a faculty mentor’s lab!
