Graduate Scholarships & Awards

Internal Scholarships

The Robert Patrick (Bob) Ryan Memorial Award was established in 2021 to assist students who are active members of the University of Regina Rams football team and pursuing a degree in any faculty at the University. During a career at Ranch Ehrlo Society that spanned more than 35 years, Bob Ryan was integral to the growth and success of that organization and made a huge positive impact on the lives of thousands of young people. With undergraduate and graduate degrees in psychology from the University of Regina, Mr. Ryan also mentored many of his professional colleagues and for a number of years taught police recruits at the Saskatchewan Police College. An avid sports fan and coach, and above all a devoted husband and father, Mr. Ryan proudly supported two of his children, sons Jon and Steve, as members of the University of Regina Rams – Jon from 2000-03 (all-star punter and receiver) and Steve from 2003-07 (second in career pass defence at the University). Sadly, Mr. Ryan passed away on December 1, 2006 after a fight with cancer. This award has been established to honour Bob Ryan. The awards are funded from contributions made by the Bob Ryan Foundation established by the Ryan family in memory of Bob and by the Gear Up with Jon Ryan Foundation.
