This scholarship was established in 2021 to recognize the importance of Professor Louis-Edmond Hamelin, founder of the CEN, to the development of the study of the North. Reflecting Hamelin's ideologies, this scholarship aims to recognize student initiatives that contribute to "Knowing the North" (generating knowledge to better understand the North), "Doing the North" (contributing to the development of the North for the North), and "Telling the North" (sharing knowledge of the North and contributing to its visibility).

The Founder's scholarship, valued at $2,000, will be presented each year at the CEN Annual Conference to a student or team represented by a CEN student for an outstanding contribution to northern research.

Applications can be submitted by email to coordination@cen.ulaval.ca between March 1 and December 15 of each year.
