Mitacs is calling for your feedback in our first-ever video contest

Since 1999, Mitacs has sought to increase Canada’s profile as an innovation destination. We’ve grown leaps and bounds, offering a full suite of programs to undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students - more than 4,800 in the last year alone!

But – we couldn’t have done it without you.

Welcome to our first-ever Mitacs Yu video contest!

We’re asking current and past Mitacs student participants to send us a short video (1 ½ to 2 minutes) about their experience with Mitacs programs. Whether it was Mitacs-Accelerate, Elevate, Globalink or Step, we want to hear how one of these programs helped you develop or changed the way you thought about your research or career options.

There will be three draws: September 30, October 30 and November 30. You will be eligible for more than one prize draw if you enter before the September or October draw dates. Winners will receive $300 gift cards from Best Buy (or equivalent for international participants). 

For full contest guidelines and to upload your video, please visit www.mitacs.ca/mitacs-yu-video-contest
