Funding applications for the fall 2024 and winter 2025 Ignite work-study program are open to UWindsor faculty and staff. Its administrators encourage supervisors motivated to help students acquire career-ready skills through experiential learning and on-campus employment to apply.

Funding details:

• Supervisors approved for funding will be reimbursed up to $1,000 for a single-term position. Fall-winter positions will be reimbursed for up to $2,000.
• Students currently working in the summer 2024 semester may remain in the same role if they continue to meet eligibility requirements.
• Employers must submit a job proposal and be approved if they intend to extend a student’s position into the fall and winter term. If approved, a new authorization must be submitted.

Job proposals can be submitted through Qualtrics with an application deadline of July 8. Late applications will not be accepted. Note: there will not be an additional winter call for proposals. Employers interested in hiring students exclusively for the winter 2025 semester must apply by the July deadline.
