The University of North Dakota Conference Travel Grant supports graduate students traveling to national conferences to present their work. Co-sponsored by the School of Graduate Studies and the Vice Provost for Research and Economic Development, it provides travel support rather than funding for a separate research project. Applicants must be the presenting author of the work.
The grant is part of the School of Graduate Studies’ broader support for graduate student grants and fellowships. These awards are primarily funded through a state-funded Doctoral Incentive Program supporting doctoral research. Conference travel costs are reimbursed after students return, following standard UND procedures, and only costs considered allowable by UND are reimbursed.
