Participants will get the opportunity to engage with other students from across the country in a supervised, virtual environment. They will work together to apply systems thinking to future-forward research areas and create exciting artifacts that encompass their learning.

Participants will learn from faculty members from Acadia University, Bishop’s University, Mount Allison University, and Saint Francis Xavier University. Virtual mini-lectures will introduce participants to different areas of research in an accessible and engaging format.

Participants who complete the program will get a specialized badge to represent their achievement throughout the course. These badges will be an excellent extracurricular to feature on future post-secondary applications.

To help create an accessible and welcoming environment for all, the first cohort of Future of Canada scholars will be sponsored by the Maple League and Shad Canada, meaning zero costs for participants. The inaugural cohort will be limited to 30 seats.
