Applied Math Travel Funds
The Applied Math Program at UIUC will provide matching funds for several types of activities for the Spring of 2006:
- Visits to National Labs by graduate students.
- Attendance at conferences by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers. Preference will be given to students who are presenting papers.
- Collaborative visits by graduate students and postdoctoral researchers.
The Program may fund up to 7 such activities, with a maximum of $600 per activity.
How to Apply
Requests for funding should be made to applied_funds@math.uiuc.edu. The deadline for such requests is March 1.
The request (in .pdf format) should include:
- A statement of other sources of funding (and the amount)
- A CV of the applicant
- A description (up to 3 pages) of the significance of the publication within the sphere of Applied Mathematics. It is expected that the resulting activity will produce mathematical novelty or an interesting new application of a known mathematical technique.
- If the request is for funds to present a paper at a conference, please include a copy of the paper if possible (a working draft is acceptable).
In the case of support to present
papers at conferences, the Applied Math program requires a hyperlink to
the paper (to put on the applied math web site).
