This is my first and last time for PGS-D.
I have couple of paper and I'm continuing my MSc work; submitted the application to my university yesterday.
There is a small increase in the # of awards this year:http://www.nserc-crsng.gc.ca/_doc/Students-Etudiants/CompStat2013-StatConcours2013_eng.pdf (see table 3 in page 5)
Hope it will continue....
