Student and Travel Grants
Student travel grants will be available. The purpose of the grants will be to make attending ICS'09 more affordable for all students, giving priority in the selection process to students presenting and/or co-authoring papers at ICS'09. Please contact the student travel grants co-ordinator at ics09grants@gmail.com by April 20.
In addition to offering student travel grants, we encourage prospective attendees to take advantage of the following programs to attend ICS.
