NSF Travel Support for Graduate Students and Recent Ph.D's
An NSF grant proposal for travel support for graduate students
and recent Ph.D's (those who've graduated since May 2005)
was submitted and we have heard that it
is very likely to be recommended for funding (the exact amount of the grant is
yet to be decided). So we are now accepting travel support applications from graduate students and
recent Ph.D.s. For full consideration, please complete your travel support application by
March 31, 2009. Kindly also submit the
online registration form by March 31, 2009 (however, you can pay the
registration fee of $175 after you hear from us regarding your level of travel
support). If you are presenting a paper, kindly submit your abstracts online also by
March 31, 2009.
An applicant for travel support must have a
Social Security Number and a valid US address. A reference letter from
a thesis advisor or senior faculty mentor on behalf of the applicant should
be sent to Dr. Hyeona Lim at hlim@math.msstate.edu.
Women and minority participants are encouraged to apply for the travel
support. Since funds are limited, we request all applicants to make
every
effort to keep their travel costs low. Priority will be given to those
applicants who will present papers at the conference.
