The CUI executive committee are committed to supporting the attendance of students at the conference so as to grow and foster the CUI community. As part of this, we are offering 3 travel grants for registered students who lack other funding opportunities to attend CUI 2019 in Dublin. 

WHAT DOES THE TRAVEL GRANT COVER?

Each award consists of an honorarium of €500 per student to go towards travel expenses including airfare (economy flights only), accommodation and subsistence. Each student will also receive free conference registration.

WHO IS ELIGIBLE?

Applications are invited from any registered student who wishes to attend CUI 2019. Priority will be given to those students with 1) accepted papers at the conference and 2) that are presenting the work at the conference 3) who have a clear need for financial support to attend to present their research. Students studying in areas relevant to CUI who do not fit this criteria will also be considered and are still encouraged to apply. 

HOW TO APPLY

To apply for the travel grant please complete the CUI Travel Grant application form and send this in pdf format to Dr Benjamin R Cowan (CUI General Co-Chair) via email at benjamin.cowan@ucd.ie by July 5th. Results will be announced on July 12th.
