Student Travel Support Award

Introduction:

The 2008 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium (IUS) will have a limited amount of funds to support student travels. If you are a student and are interested in getting such a support, please pay attention to the criteria in "The Criteria for Student Travel Support" for qualification. In addition, when submitting abstracts through our abstract submission website that is accessible from https://ewh.ieee.org/conf/ius_2008/, please make appropriate selections, provide all the information, and answer all the questions requested there (this may include basic information about your lab, your advisor, expected thesis completion date, and 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 money will be available at the Symposium registration desk. The amount of money for each student awarded may be different depending on the geographical location of the student. Awards will be made on a competitive basis (please see the criteria below). Award winners will be notified at about the same time as that of the abstract status notification (about two weeks after the end of the 2nd Technical Program Committee meeting, which will be held from June 14-15, 2008).

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

We look forward to your participation of the conference. See you in Beijing in November 2008.

The Criteria for Student Travel Support:

Students Approved for the Travel Support Award from the 2008 IEEE IUS:

The following students have been approved for the travel support award by the 2008 IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposium. The award notification emails have been sent to the students or the submitting authors on July 2, 2008. To actually receive the award money, students should show clear evidence of both IEEE and IEEE UFFC memberships (such as receipts of both IEEE and IEEE UFFC memberships from an IEEE web account), present the IEEE membership card, and show valid student identification (ID). In addition, students should meet all the conditions listed above, "The Criteria for Student Travel Support", such as, the student must be a presenter of the abstract and have not received any travel support from any previous IEEE International Ultrasonics Symposia. The 2008 IEEE IUS reserves the right to retract the award for any student who does not meet the stated requirements above. When all the conditions above are met, the money will be available for the students to pick up on the registration desks in Beijing during the conference.
