Student Travel Support

With the support of CRM, the Fields Institute, MITACS and PIMS, grants are available to partially fund the travel and accommodation costs for bona fide graduate students at a Canadian or other university. Preference is given to Canadian students. To apply for this funding, applicants should submit a letter written by their supervisor or departmental graduate advisor, providing the following: name of student, area of study and level, how the student will benefit from the meeting, whether or not the student be speaking, and what support is available from other sources.

This letter should be sent before April 1, 2010 to gradtravel-s10@cms.math.ca. Applicants will be notified of the funding decision in mid April.

If successful, the student will receive a cheque for reimbursement of expenses after the meeting and upon completion and submission of the standard Travel Expense Claim Form, along with appropriate original receipts.

For more information, please contact the Meeting Committee at gradtravel-s10@cms.math.ca.
