Description
The IMS Hannan Graduate Student Travel Award funds travel and registration for graduate students attending meetings sponsored or co-sponsored by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (IMS). It supports students studying statistical science or probability, including those who may present a paper or poster. Presentations are encouraged but are not required, so the award also supports meeting attendance without a presentation.
The program forms part of IMS’s mission to foster the development and dissemination of the theory and applications of statistics and probability. Applications are reviewed by the IMS Committee on Travel Awards. Any paper or poster associated with the award must be the student’s own work, although collaboration with an advisor or others is allowed.
