Description
The National Communication Association (NCA) offers Student Caucus Travel Grants to support its commitment to promoting diversity within the Communication discipline. The program helps student members of NCA’s caucuses travel to the association’s Annual Convention. It funds convention participation rather than a separate research study or project.
The published 2026 cycle supports attendance at NCA’s 112th Annual Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana. The convention brings together communication scholars, educators, and practitioners for research presentations, panel discussions, workshops, networking, and professional development across communication studies. Travel grants are available to qualifying students on a first-come, first-served basis, with eligibility tied to student membership, caucus participation, convention registration, and limited institutional travel support.
