OVERVIEW
The Academic Senate is now accepting applications for the 2018-19 Doctoral Student Travel Grant. The grants are awarded to eligible students on a first-come, first-serve basis each fiscal year. Applicants must be doctoral students and have advanced to candidacy, or if Master of Fine Arts students, must be in their second year and be in candidacy prior to travel.
APPLICATION POOLS
The funding for the 2018-19 Doctoral Student Travel Grant is split into two equal pools:
Conference travel between July 1, 2018 and December 31, 2018
Conference travel between January 1, 2019 and June 30, 2019
Within each pool, the funding is divided between the divisions and schools housing graduate programs. The allocation for each division/school is based upon its headcount of graduate student enrollment.
- Bren School for Environmental Science and Management
- College of Engineering
- Division of Humanities and Fine Arts, College of Letters and Science
- Division of Mathematical, Life, and Physical Sciences, College of Letters and Science
- Division of Social Sciences, College of Letters and Science

The Graduate Council has put these guidelines in place to help ensure that the grant funding will be distributed equally among students attending conferences at the beginning and the end of the year, and among the various disciplines.
DEADLINE:
First-come, first-serve.
Applications will be accepted for each pool until the funds are expended for respective divisions/schools.
