Student Travel Grants — Conference attendance

ESA encourages student attendance at its annual conference with the Student Travel Grant.

Students may only receive one conference grant. Each award is calculated on the distance travelled and the availability of other support.

We provide money towards the costs of getting to the conference based on fares from the nearest main city from the student's institution. Money is not provided for registration or living costs while attending the conference. We aim to spread the money among as many students as possible. 

To be considered for approval, applicants must:

  • be members of ESA, be presenting a talk or a poster as the senior author
  • indicate in their applications the projected travel budget including the amount of any departmental or other support available, and
  • provide contact details for their supervisor and departmental head

To apply for a Conference Travel Grant for ESA 2008 (Sydney, New South Wales):

1.  Fill in the application form and send it to the Grants Officer (Ian Williamson) by Monday July 28, 2008.

2. Register for the conference and pay your student registration fee.

3. When you receive notification that you will be presenting a paper or poster, send a copy of this notification to the Grants Officer. Failure to do this may result in money not being awarded. 

IMPORTANT: please read the criteria above carefully — applicants failing to address any of these criteria will not be considered.
