Support for Travel

Students can request funding from The Graduate School to cover up to $1000 per year towards travel expenses to present their research at scientific meetings and conferences.

Graduate students have the opportunity to attend scientific meetings and conferences locally, nationally and around the globe. Scientific meetings and conferences offer a chance for students to present research posters and give talks about their projects. It's a great way to network with other scientists in the field, with opportunities to learn and connect with colleagues in the pursuit of new breakthroughs in biomedical research.

Most of the time travel is domestic, however, students may travel internationally if they find a relevant meeting related to their research. Our students find that having the ability to travel to present work is an exciting and rewarding part of their professional development.

Funding requests must be submitted no later than two weeks before travel dates.
