Student travel
The Conference will offer travel grants to a limited number of students working in magnetism and magnetic materials. The grants are intended to partially offset travel costs for presenting students to attend the 56th MMM Conference. The Conference grants will be in the amount of $750.
Eligibility
To be eligible for a Conference travel grant, a student must be presenting a paper at the Conference, the student's supervisor must submit a letter of recommendation, and the student must not have previously received a Conference or Magnetics Society travel grant. Only one application per research group will be accepted. Preference will be given to students who are nearing completion of their PhD graduate studies, although a limited number of Conference travel grants will be awarded to Masters and Undergraduate students. Postdoctoral fellows and non-students are not eligible.
How to apply
Application forms and instructions for all travel grants will be posted online at www.magnetism.org under "Student Travel", after the announcement of abstract acceptance in late September.
The deadline for submitting applications and letters of endorsement is 5:00 PM Eastern daylight time on September 15, 2011.
Applications MUST be submitted online, and incomplete or late applications and endorsement letters will NOT be considered. 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. Applicants will be notified of the committee's decision in November.
