Student
Travel Grants Program
The Organizing Committee will do everything possible to assist international
students to attend the Conference by offering travel grants to cover the
partial travel costs to Taiwan. Travel grants will be paid to the applicants
who demonstrate the greatest level of achievement in order to attend the
Conference. The evaluation process of who will be awarded the grants will
come after all interested parties have registered. Therefore, applicants
must first pay the registration fee and all other fees prior to the Conference
regardless of whether they will be awarded grants.
All international students who are currently enrolled and submit an abstract
for this conference are eligible for this grant application. Please note
that students who have had their Conference abstract accepted and/or are
from developing countries will receive higher priority for consideration.
A limited number of travel grants will be available for those in need
of financial support for their travel to the conference. If you feel you
are in this category, please submit the necessary documentation to the
evaluation committee. The financial award is up to NTD 9600 (Approx. USD
300) per person, depending on the number of applicants, and the travel
distance.
