Student travel grants
The Conference will offer travel support to a limited number of students working in magnetism and magnetic materials. The Conference support will be in the amount of $500. This support is intended to partially offset travel costs to attend the 55rd Magnetism and Magnetic Materials Conference. Support is for current graduate students only; postdoctoral fellows or non-students are not eligible. To be eligible for travel support, a student must be presenting a Conference paper and preference will be given to students who are nearing completion of their graduate studies. Due to the limited funding, only a small number of travel grants will be available. As such, grants to more than one student per research group will not be supported. All students who will be presenting a Conference paper are eligible for travel support and, subject to the conditions stated above, will be chosen at random from the applicant pool.
In addition to the above travel support for graduate students, there will be a small number of travel grants, in the amount of $500 each, offered to undergraduate students who will be presenting their work at the Conference.
