The Killam Trusts provide scholarships for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty at six institutions across the country. No other philanthropic effort has contributed this level of funding to higher education in Canada.
These awards are open to people at Dalhousie University, the University of Alberta, The University of British Columbia, the University of Calgary, and The Neuro (Montreal Neurological Institute-Hospital at McGill University).
There are also Killam awards adjudicated by the National Killam Program Office of the National Research Council of Canada: the Killam Prizes, the Dorothy Killam Fellowships and the Killam NRC Paul Corkum Fellowships. The Killam Prize is worth $100,000 and is given annually in recognition of lifetime achievement in each of five disciplines: natural sciences, social sciences, health sciences, engineering and the humanities. The Dorothy Killam Fellowship is valued at $80,000/year for two years and provide support to scholars of exceptional ability by granting them time to pursue research projects of broad significance and widespread interest. The Paul Corkum fellowship creates opportunities for mid-to-late career Canadian and international scholars to collaborate with NRC researchers.
To date, there are more than 8,000 Killam Laureates around the world.
