Hi people,

Have you people received anything about NSERC PDF applications this year (2011-2012)? I am getting excited as we approach the end of March.

No yet! Apparently we'll receive the letter by the end of the next week.

My grad secretary just e-mailed me saying that I won a CGSD3. I actually cried a little. Good luck to everyone!

Congrats :) May I ask if you know of any PDF winners at your university?

Congrats westCoast!!!

It's Friday after 5PM so I can't ask the secretary at my uni.:angry:

Keep on waiting for Canada Post mailman to come with the magic letter (at least through this weekend)!

Congratulations! your university should have the list of all the winners now. Given that you're at UBC, can we conclude the results have been sent out early this week? the letters are coming from Ottawa anyway. What do you guys think? unfortunately the post doesn't deliver regular mails over the weekend as far as I know.

I think NSERC emails schools so schools always know the results earlier than we do. Likely it's been done on Friday. Also think that mails have been sent to students on the same day too. We should expect to receive results via regular mail by Tuesday/Wednesday next week?

It must be Tuesday then...anyways, I will email our Grad studies (not grad secretary cause Grad studies is in charge) and ask about my PDF...if I do not get it, it will be a huge discouragement for my academic future...if I get it, I need to find a school worthy of tenure...stay tuned..

are all these papers the output of your PhD studies, or its from masters and PhD? Also, if you don't mind, are 7 published conferences full papers published in the proceesings or the abstract published? are all these conferences from your PhD?

No, I'm from U of T in Industrial Eng. At the time of application I had 3 journal papers published. One accepted. One submitted. 3 conference proeceedings published. All as the first author. But I had also about 6 or 7 conferene presentations. What about the awards? Did you have some significant awards on your application?

I had twice OGSST, once OGS, and a paper which got the best student paper award, one research award, and some other awards! :) but still I'm too worried about the results. My department is Mechanical & Industrial ENg. I guess the departments should have a master list based on what people posted last year on GradCafe 2010-2011. It seems starting since last year the NSERC sends also the list of PDF applicants as well.

Hey,

So I guess our publication records are kind of the same SOONA and UTGrad. I am from VLSI group of ECE dept. so although our fields are different, our chances could be similar based on the publication records and awards, I have had OGSST and OGS. Now, it all comes back to the proposal and community involvements...stay tuned..
