IEEE CIS Outstanding Student-Paper Travel Grants

This program offers a limited number of travel grants to assist IEEE-CIS Student Members presenting papers at IEEE CIS sponsored conferences.

To receive one of these grants the prospective recipient must fulfill all of the following requirements:

1. be a student member both of the IEEE and the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society prior to submitting travel grant application,
2. be the author or co-author of a paper accepted at the conference,
3. must have contributed to at least 50% of the research presented in the accepted paper,
4. actually attend the conference and present the paper,
5. be a student (or have been at the time of paper submission deadline) and carry at least 50% of a normal full-time academic program as a registered undergraduate or graduate student in a regular course of study.

Only one student author per paper will be awarded a travel grant and a student can receive only one travel grant of any type per year.

IEEE CIS Conference Travel Grant Program for Researchers from Developing Countries

This program offers a very limited number of travel grants to assist IEEE-CIS Members of any grade higher than Student presenting papers at IEEE CIS sponsored conferences.

To receive one of these grants the prospective recipient must fulfill all of the following requirements:

1. be a member (at any level) both of the IEEE and the IEEE Computational Intelligence Society prior to submitting travel grant application,
2. be the author or co-author of a paper accepted at the conference,
3. must have contributed to at least 50% of the research presented in the accepted paper,
4. actually attend the conference and present the paper,
5. be in need of support to attend the conference and present the paper.

Only one author per paper will be awarded a travel grant and a person can receive only one travel grant of any type per year.
