At least you can make an evolution in industry and go back to academia when a position opens , especially if you keep publishing !!! In addition you just improve your network.

marmoor Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I am in CS, one is Intel R&D the other is IBM Dev. I am actually worried about job stability I have never been in industry and heard you might be layed off any minute. I am not even sure if I would have the time to publish in a developing position but at least its something new to me since I lived in school doing research since I remember.

Well they told some other person that PDF letters were mailed yesterday, so I think nobody know whats happening in NSERC . Maybe there is fight between the mailman and NSERC staff and some letters go to the mailman side some to NSERC staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMac22 Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I applied from St.FX and received an email yesterday from our Scholarship Liaison Officer informing me that I have been offered a PGS-M. Apparently the results are up on NSERC's secure website so the SLO for your respective universities may be able to access the information, but I was told not to expect the letter from NSERC until next week. All the best to everyone who applied! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmoor Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Just heard that I was awarded a PGS-D, little bit frustrating that it is not a CGS-D but I will take it. Congrats, I would say take your PGS to a big school in US such as MIT or Stanford so you wouldnt be sad about CGS. and really if you have the chance to take your award outside do it there is a BIG difference for your future.
