Conference: NSF Student Travel Grant for 2024 IEEE Global Communication Conference (IEEE GLOBECOM 2024)

IEEE GLOBECOM is one of the two flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc), together with IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC). IEEE GLOBECOM 2024 will take place in Cape Town, South Africa, from 8-12 December 2024. This project funds undergraduate or graduate students from US universities to attend IEEE GLOBECOM. Attending such a high-caliber technical venue is extremely valuable for students. Not only will they be exposed to the state-of-the-art research areas, but they also can have the opportunity to interact with peers from institutions worldwide, meet with leading researchers from both industry and academia, and take part in discussions that may shape the future of the field. For graduating senior students to be on the job market, attending the conference may significantly benefit their career development. Applications are invited from qualified full-time US-based graduate and undergraduate students. Women and underrepresented groups will be encouraged to apply for this travel grant, in order to promote participation in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. The requested support will cover 16 students, leading to a total of $20,000. Applications are invited from qualified full-time US-based engineering graduate and undergraduate students. Women and other underrepresented groups in STEM, beginning graduate students, and first time IEEE GLOBECOM student attendees will be especially encouraged to apply for this travel grant.
