Postgraduate Student Conference Travel Grant to the IAG
Postgraduate Student Conference Travel Grant to the IAG
Application closing date: Monday, 24th of June 2024
The Geographical Society of New South Wales is proud to announce it will be offering financial support to Postgraduate students currently enroled in an Australian university to travel to Adelaide for the 2024 IAG Conference. Typically, GSNSW has held a postgraduate event alongside the IAG up to the value of $2000. As this is not taking place this year, GSNSW is using these funds to financially assist postgraduate students to travel to the IAG instead. Whilst the maximum grant is $500 per awardee, the amount awarded will be dependent on the number of applications and their eligibility with the criteria detailed below.
Eligibility criteria:
- A Postgraduate/HDR Student (PhD or Masters) and
- Presenting a paper at the 2024 IAG Conference
In addition:
- Priority for these awards will be given to geographers who are otherwise ineligible for institutional internal research funding and/or who have no individual recourse to external research funding.
- Applicants need to be a current member of the Society when applying for this Award. Information of GSNSW Membership can be found here: https://www.geogsoc.org.au/site/index.cfm?display=649986
- Conference Participation Grants are awarded at the discretion of the GSNSW Council. The amount of each individual grant will vary depending on the number and form of attendance (i.e. online or face to face) of applicants.
Application closing date: 24th June 2024
Notification of success will take place shortly after the application deadline.
