Posted by The University of Guelph – Canada is offering an opportunity to support international students who wish to undertake a degree program in the Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition at Guelph.
The university will provide one award of $1,000 in the fall, and the recipient must be registered to receive it.
The University of Guelph traces its origins back to when the Ontario government bought 200 hectares (500 acres) of farmland from Frederick William Stone and opened the Ontario School of Agriculture on May 1, 1874, which was renamed the Ontario Agricultural College (OAC) in 1880. The Experimental Farm has been part of the original project along with the museum of agriculture and horticulture. Its first building was Moreton Lodge, located where Johnston Hall now stands, which included classrooms, residences, a library, and a dining room. In 1874, the school started an apiculture department, teaching students about bees and beekeeping, in a dedicated building. In more recent years, the program has continued at the Honey Bee Research Centre located in the Arboretum, continuing research on honeybee health, providing apiculture and beekeeping courses and offering “many other educational experiences” including informative videos for beekeepers.
