Description
Administered by UBC’s Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies, this fund helps graduate students share research results with professional audiences, develop professionally, and advance their careers. It supports expenses associated with disseminating research rather than conducting the underlying research.
Supported activities include presenting papers or posters at academic conferences, disciplinary meetings, workshops, and symposia, as well as participating in, performing, or exhibiting artistic work. Presentations and artistic activities may be virtual or in person. The fund also supports fees charged by journals or publishers to make accepted peer-reviewed publications openly available, often called article processing charges.
