Submit your Student Grant Application
NSMMS & CRASTE is pleased to announce the student grant program for this year's symposia. This program is intended to encourage student participation and provide networking opportunities for students with representatives from industry, academia, and government. Applicants are required to either give an oral or a poster presentation of their research at the event. To be considered for oral presentation, abstracts and applications must be submitted by the abstract deadline. After this date, applicants will only be considered for poster presentations.
Eligibility:
Full-time graduate or undergraduate students in good academic standing are eligible to apply. All applicants must be U.S. Citizens and have a DD 2345 (if not a military or government employee). All students must be taking summer courses or doing research over the summer to be covered by the University DD 2345. Students do not need individual DD 2345 certifications, but may fall under their school department's DD 2345. See the security page for more information on this. Abstracts on your suggested topic (300 words or less) are required with the application.
Funding:
The award will cover admission into the conference plus a copy of the proceedings.
Job/Application Board:
There will be an online job board board that students may post their resumes/CVs to and employers may post job openings. We encourage you to take advantage of this if you will be in the job market soon.
Excellence Awards for Technical Session Posters:
Cash awards will be given to the top three participating student posters. The top three student poster presenters will be recognized at the close of the conference. Their cash prizes will be mailed to them shortly after the event.
1st Place Student Excellence Award $500
2nd Place Student Excellence Award $300
3rd Place Student Excellence Award $200
