Funding Application
Funding for the workshop will cover travel costs, living expenses, and registration fee for selected student participants. For selected local student participants, funding will cover the registration fee, which includes lunches and the conference reception.
An application for funded participation in the conference must contain
- a brief (maximum one-page) curriculum vitae of the applicant;
- a one-paragraph description of how participation in the conference will enhance the education goals of the applicant;
- an estimate of travel costs;
- contact information: email address, phone number, and regular mail address;
- a letter of support from a faculty advisor or mentor; a brief email suffices!
The deadline for receipt of the application is October 1, 2001, and decisions will be made by November 1, 2001. Priority will be given to graduating seniors and first-year graduate students. Please send the application by one of the following methods:
