Summary: Travel support helps full-time doctoral students at U.S.-based institutions with limited funding attend AMS Spring and Fall sectional meetings.
Key Information: Each individual may receive an AMS Sectional Meeting Travel Grant only once.
The American Mathematical Society (AMS) offers Sectional Meeting Travel Grants to help graduate students with limited funding participate in its in-person Spring and Fall sectional meetings. The program supports travel for meeting attendance rather than a separate research project, reducing financial barriers to participation in the mathematical community.
Sectional meetings provide opportunities to present research, connect with other members of the mathematical community, and explore professional pathways. Grants can support attendance at any in-person Spring or Fall AMS sectional meeting. The program is intended for full-time doctoral students at U.S.-based institutions.
