Student Support at Annual Conferences

An amount^* up to $350 per student will be available to support students of the Australian Mathematical Society who attend the annual conference and present a paper, and who reside outside the capital city in which the conference is being held.

This will encourage students to attend the annual Australian Mathematical Society conferences; it will emphasise the importance of students giving presentations about their work; and it will provide students with a small example of ways of obtaining funding to support their research efforts.

If students are not members of the Society, they must join at the time of this application. Details are available online.

The final deadline of two weeks prior to the start of the annual conference is firm. However, if a students wishes to know whether his or her application is successful, prior to confirming travel arrangements, then this form should be lodged with the Secretary (details on last page) two months before the conference.

Applications should be made on the linked form (designed for double-sided printing). The final page includes details about where to lodge the completed form. Your application should contain details of the full cost of travel, including air fares, registration, transfer fares, accommodation, and conference dinner if that is not included in the conference registration fee. All support obtained, or applied for, from all other sources must be listed, or an explanation should be given as to why there is no other support available.

^*This amount will be determined by Council from time to time.
