Summary: Travel support helps graduate students with limited funding attend AMS Sectional Meetings to share research and connect with the mathematical community.
Key Information: Applicants must be full-time doctoral students at U.S.-based institutions and may receive this grant only once.
The American Mathematical Society’s Sectional Meeting Travel Grants help graduate students with limited funding participate in in-person Spring and Fall AMS Sectional Meetings. The program reduces financial barriers to meeting attendance rather than funding a separate research project.
Sectional meetings provide opportunities to present mathematical research, connect with the mathematical community, and explore professional pathways. Travel grants support access to these research, community, and professional opportunities at any in-person AMS sectional meeting in either seasonal cycle. Applicants must be full-time doctoral students at U.S.-based institutions.
