Travel Grants & Other Funding
Conference Grants
The Department strongly encourages students to attend professional conferences.
TGS Conference Travel Grant
A student who is attending or presenting their research work in a conference may apply for a TGS travel grant. Students are eligible for a maximum of two grants up to $800 per trip. Applications must be submitted at least one week prior to the conference start date, but students are strongly encouraged to apply as soon as possible, as funds are limited. See the TGS Conference Travel Grant (CTG) page for more information and the application.
The Department Business Coordinator will assist you with the reimbursement process.
The Department of Statistics and Data Science Conference Travel Grant
The Department of Statistics and Data Science may be able to provide additional support for eligible conference expenses, up to $2,200 per trip. To apply for a department grant students must submit a Department Conference Travel Grant Application to the DGS at least 14 days prior to the first date of travel.
Students may apply for both a Department Travel Grant and a TGS Conference Travel Grant.
The Department Business Coordinator will assist you with the reimbursement process.
