Travel funding
The School of Graduate Studies and the Graduate Students' Union (GSU) provides travel funding to Memorial University's master's and doctoral students who are presenting papers/posters at conferences outside of Memorial
The GSU provides conference aid monies for eligible graduate students. Students are eligible if:
- funds are available
- they have followed the application procedure
- and they are presenting a paper/poster at a conference, or they are receiving conference aid from the Dean of their faculty and/or the Dean of Graduate Studies.
While assistance is available only after the conference is
completed, students should apply for aid a minimum of 4 weeks
before their departure dates.
The maximum amount of conference funding available for any graduate student is $250 per program. However, a student may opt to split this amount over several conferences, rather than applying for the entire sum for a single conference. Thus, conference funding may be available more than once during a graduate program. For more information, please consult the GSU website (www.gsumun.ca) or email gsu@gsumun.ca.
The School of Graduate Studies offers travel assistance to graduate
students who are presenting papers/posters at conferences. This
funding may be used in conjunction with that received from the GSU.
For more information visit the main office of the School of
Graduate Studies at IIC-2012, Inco Innovation Centre or email
sgs@mun.ca.
