IntroductionThe IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium will have funds for partial support of students attending the symposium. If you are a student and are interested in getting travel support, please review "The Criteria for Student Travel Support" for qualification. In addition, when submitting abstracts, please make appropriate selection, provide all the information, and answer all the questions requested there (this may include basic information about your research laboratory and institution, your advisor, expected thesis completion date, expected graduation date, etc.). If you are submitting more than one abstract, you should provide the information for each of the abstracts submitted. If your request is approved, the funds will be available at the Symposium registration desk. The amount of funds awarded to each student may vary depending on the geographical location of the student’s laboratory. Awards will be made on a competitive basis (please see the criteria below). Award recipients will be notified soon after the abstract acceptance results are available (beginning of June 2015).

Please notice that the decisions on the Student Travel Support award are final. The awards are intended to partially defray the cost of travel and are not intended to be sufficient to cover your entire travel expenses. 

The Criteria for Student Travel Support

• Abstract describing high quality work is accepted and the student must be the presenter of the abstract at the conference (Student Paper Competition finalists may get a higher priority in getting the award)
• The student has not previously received a travel support from the IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposia
• Only one student per laboratory or advisor will be supported

At the time of the symposium, the finalist is required to be a registered member of the IEEE and IEEE UFFC society.
