Convention Opportunity Travel Grant
Thanks to our members who have donated to the Future of the Field, ASEEES is able to offer a limited number of travel grants to subsidize the travel of non-student members with income under $30,000 to present their papers at the ASEEES Annual Convention. Applications are judged on intellectual merit of the paper topic with a view to disciplinary and regional balances. Where possible, priority is given to first-time convention presenters or junior scholars who do not receive institutional support, such as those working as adjuncts or who are unemployed or underemployed.
