Mr. Gill,

Can you please elaborate more about the scholarships for the same and about the University of Alberta and please correct me if I am wrong though McGill and Uni. of Toronto are the best where the probability would be less and while cost for the same would be much higher than Uni. of Alberta.

And as I do not have much experience of research but I had represented papers on few technical topics related to chemical engineering and did project work related to research along with company few company.

I had also undergone 6 months training in Germany related to my field.

I am having little idea about U Alberta

In McGill
Most of the MSc Program (thesis) are funded by the university . Students has a little fee to pay for it.

All i can suggest u is to apply in all universities and explore the university websites if the program in U Alberta are funded by university or not.

If there is any provision for scholarship, must apply.

I know it's bit irrelevant to raise this question but I would like to know one thing about the level of difficulty for masters studies (I know it might not be related to your field) but will you please let me know about that.

May I know for about your profile as you are also going for further studies (If you don't mind)
