Bachelor, Master, and PhD students as well as junior faculty/researchers are eligible to apply. This support is made possible by generous support from the US National Science Foundation (NSF), CRA-W/CDC Alliance, HP Labs, INRIA, Alcatel-Lucent France, ACM SIGCOMM, and ACM SIGMOBILE. The grants will partially cover an applicant's travel cost to Chicago, USA, where the N2Women 2014 Workshop will be held. Most funds must support US citizens and US-based students, however limited funds are also available for international attendees. Priority for travel grants will be given to applicants (1) who do not have papers at the SIGCOMM conference, (2) whose advisors have promised some cost sharing, and (3) who are in the first 2-3 years of the PhD. Underrepresented minorities and female students from diverse institutions are particularly encouraged to apply. In addition, U.S. citizens/residents will be given priority on some of the travel funds. *** How to Apply? *** Applicants for the travel award should apply using the following link: http://form.jotformeu.com/form/41174051814346 In addition, student applicants (i.e., Bachelors, Masters, or PhDs) should have their advisor send to n2women-travel-grant-committee@googlegroups.com a supporting letter including: - Confirmation that the student is a Bachelor, a Master, or a Ph.D. candidate in good standing. - Ways in which attending the workshop and main conference would benefit the particular student. - The strengths and potential contributions of the student. - Indicate how the remainder of the student travel cost, not covered by the award, will be covered. *** Travel Support: *** The N2Women Travel Grants Committee will review applications, and the grants will be announced by June 16, 2014.
