Summary: Student Travel Awards help current and recent students cover expenses associated with attending the Waterbird Society’s Annual Meeting.
The Waterbird Society offers Student Travel Awards to help current and recent students attend its Annual Meeting. The awards support participation in the meeting rather than a separate research project, and recipients may use the funds for any meeting-related expenses.
The Society is an international scientific organization dedicated to the study and conservation of waterbirds. Its Annual Meeting brings together scientists and conservationists for presentations, workshops, student events, networking, and professional development. The published award information describes support for the 2026 meeting in Cape May, New Jersey; applicants should check the program page for updates to the next cycle.
