The University of Toronto is increasing its base funding for PhD students and SJD (Doctor of Juridical Science) students to $40K per year, starting next Fall. This funding increase aims to alleviate financial pressures so that students can focus on their research, which will in turn boost U of T’s competitiveness. “Increasing graduate funding for our PhD and SJD students is truly a collaborative effort, one that requires commitment from all our partners–graduate units, faculty members, the university advancement teams and the university’s senior leadership,” said U of T Vice-Provost, Graduate Research and Education & Dean of the School of Graduate Studies Joshua Barker.
