每年我们99机构都会有学生拿到“总督奖”,并没有做过宣传,因为很多学生是知道的。但是随着这几年的网课,学生很多信息失落,所以给大家说说这个总督奖。需要声明的是学生在公立学校拿到这个奖含金量是非常高的,CAIS联盟成员的私立学校也很好。
总督奖全称总督学术奖The Governor General's Academic Medal 。
介绍
加拿大总督学术奖是加拿大政府(总督府)直接颁发的最高学术荣誉,用于表彰以最高分毕业于各加拿大高中和大学的学生。一百多年来加拿大仅5万人获此殊荣。加拿大前总理皮尔·特鲁多(现任总理贾斯汀·特鲁多的父亲),加拿大唯一女性总理金·坎贝尔,加拿大全民医保创始人、政治家道格拉斯,前魁北克省省长政治家罗伯特等名人都是此奖项获得者。
1. 奖被为学术奖,因为只看以下四个阶段的学术水平:
- 中学阶段的铜奖;
- 大专阶段的铜奖;
- 本科阶段的银奖;
- 研究生阶段的金奖
2. 和别的奖不同( 舒利克奖学金),为了维护大学的精神,该奖特作说明,只看成绩并确保该奖只给成绩优秀的学生,不考虑那些无形的学生生活方面,比如好公民,道德模范或好人气。
3. 学生所在的学校有责任每年决定获奖者。学生不能共同获一个奖。
4. 加拿大公民不是授予勋章的先决条件。
参与方式
5. 符合规定的学校先申请 Chancellery of Honours. 一旦被批准,参与的机构会每年自动收到奖项说明。

大学阶段的银奖和金奖
A university must be empowered to grant degrees by its province and must belong to the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada.
1. Federated universities may only award the medal in the discipline(s) for which they have the right to grant degrees.
2 The SILVER medal is awarded to the undergraduate who achieves the highest academic standing upon graduation from a bachelor degree program. The number of silver medals awarded by each university shall be determined by its full-time equivalent (FTE) undergraduate enrolment:
- 1 medal – under 15,000 students
- 2 medals – 15,000 to 25,000
- 3 medals – more than 25,000.
3 .The GOLD medal is awarded to the student who achieves the highest academic standing at the graduate level. The number of gold medals awarded by each university shall be determined by its full-time equivalent (FTE) graduate enrolment:
- 1 medal – under 2,500 students
- 2 medals – 2,500 to 5,000
- 3 medals – more than 5,000.
4 .Universities awarding more than one silver and/or gold medal may use any method of determining winners that satisfies the basic criteria of academic excellence and equitability of access for the student population (e.g. one in Arts, one in Science).
5. Since the number of gold and silver medals is determined based on full-time equivalent (FTE) enrolment, all students (full-time and part-time) are eligible.
