Henry P. Habib Undergraduate Bursary in Political Science

The Henry P. Habib Undergraduate Bursary in Political Science was created through the generosity of Mr. Daniel W. Colson, who received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Loyola College in 1968, and named this bursary in honour of Professor Emeritus Henry P. Habib. Dr. Habib taught at Concordia University in the Department of Political Science from 1961 to 1997. He was Chair of the Department from 1961 to 1969 and again from 1982 continuously until May 31 1998, despite his formal retirement in 1997. Professor Habib received the John O'Brien Distinguished Teaching Award in 1985 and was named Professor Emeritus at the University's Convocation Ceremonies on June 1999. The Henry P. Habib Undergraduate Bursary in Political Science is available to deserving full-time Canadian citizens or permanent residents in the Department of Political Science. This bursary is non-renewable however recipients may reapply for consideration in successive years.
