Receiving the Esri Canada GIS Scholarship has been incredibly valuable for my doctoral research. The tools and licenses included in the award package, especially access to ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Urban, and other web and mobile applications, are absolutely essential for the cartographic analysis at the core of my project. These resources allow me to work at a level of detail and complexity that would not have been possible otherwise. The training opportunities and access to Esri’s learning platform have also help me strengthen my technical skills and apply GIS methods more confidently in my work.
