CEDA Student Travel Grant

Overview

IEEE CEDA Student Travel Grants can be awarded to any student attending a CEDA-sponsored conference, symposium or workshop. The grants are allocated based on the clear need of support for the requesting students; between 10-15 travel grants will be awarded annually, based on the number of applicants and available program funding.

The application requires the following conditions:

• IEEE CEDA Travel Grants include an IEEE Student Membership benefit: Join here prior to beginning this application. You will need your 8-digit IEEE number to complete the student travel grant form.
• Include letters of support stating a financial need from the Advisor and the Chair or Department Head of the institution where the student is affiliated. The same letter can be signed by both institution representatives.
• An application is not considered complete until the IEEE Student Membership request is complete, and a completed online application form (below) is submitted; incomplete applications will not be considered.
