[Students] Undergraduate Travel Grant Competition

[Greta Spradling]

Undergraduate Travel Grant Competition

 

The Texas A&M University-Commerce Undergraduate Travel Grant Program
provides funding for undergraduate students presenting their research at
a conference.  Award amounts range from $100 to $500.  The Undergraduate
Travel Grant Program is sponsored by the Provost for Academic Affairs
and the Vice-President for Student Access and Success. 

 

These funds can only be used for travel to an academic conference at
which a student is presenting their work.  Verification of the
applicant's role (for example, a formal acceptance letter; the relevant
page of conference program) must be documented. If the applicant has not
received confirmation, an explanation must be provided. All awards, even
if approved by the committee, will not be granted or paid until a
confirmation document is received.  

 

Grants are competitive and are awarded based upon availability of
funding.  Grant awards are application specific and can not be
transferred from one event/location to another without prior approval of
the Office of the Provost.

 

To apply, students must submit a completed application form and
verification of their work's acceptance at the conference/professional
proceedings.  The application form is not complete without their
advisor's signature.

 

Interested individuals should submit a hard copy of their application to
the Office of the Provost by March 5th , 2010.  Additionally, an
electronic copy of the application should be sent to Dr. Ray Green
(Raymond_Green at tamu-commerce.edu).  For an electronic application,
contact Dr. Ray Green.
