Tuition and Funding

All new full-time admissions to the SPPH PhD program starting in 2018 will receive an offer of admission from the program that includes a minimum funding commitment of $22,000 per year for four years.

The funding package may consist of any combination of external or internal scholarships, research assistantships, teaching assistantships, or income from other academically-related work at UBC (e.g. graduate administrative assistantships, lectureships).

At the request of the student, income from other employment in the field of the student’s research may be considered part of the funding package, whether the work occurs on or off campus. Students may be required to disclose their sources and amounts of university employment income or scholarship funding, as well as other income sources to the graduate program, and must inform the program immediately of any new or additional funding sources. Students will be able to accept or decline the package as a whole or only accept specific components.
