The American Institute of Bangladesh Studies (AIBS) provides travel grants for US citizens participating in scholarly conferences within the United States. The program supports individual AIBS members who present papers or organize panels that include topics relevant to Bangladesh studies. Its focus is conference participation rather than a separate research project, with funding tied to sharing scholarship through presentations and panels.
Support is limited to domestic conference travel; no funds are currently available for international travel grants for US citizens. Awards are paid through reimbursement after travel, and recipients must retain travel receipts and submit a final report and reimbursement form to receive funds.
