Professional Development Awards

Travel Funds for a Conference Research Paper Presentation

Graduate students presenting papers at conferences may apply to the Graduate College and to the CIS Department Chair for travel support funds through a Professional Development Award.

With approval of the Chair, the department will match funds granted through a Graduate College award. Departmental support is a required component of the Professional Development Award application. If, for some reason, support from the Graduate College is not possible, it may still be possible to obtain funding from the CIS Department.

Please note that a student may only receive a maximum of two travel awards with a limitation of one travel award per academic year.
