YES Fellowship

Overview

The Young Engineers and Scientists (YES!) Fellowship program offers six-week summer research experiences to graduating secondary students in British Columbia entering their first year at a recognized post-secondary institution. The fellowships are located at TRIUMF.  

The fellowship includes an award of about $4,500 plus travel and housing allowances for those students outside Metro Vancouver. A minimum of two positions at TRIUMF are offered each year.

The intent of the YES Fellowship is to motivate students with a passionate interest in science and engineering to pursue a career in research by offering them the opportunity to experience a real life laboratory environment.
