Student Travel Grant Program
Beginning with the 2022 LS/FIO conference, the grant amount will be increased to $1000.
Through this program, DLS provides partial funding (up to $1000/grant) for travel expenses for a limited number of graduate or undergraduate students to attend and participate in person at CLEO, the APS March meeting, or Frontiers In Optics/Laser Science. To be eligible, the student must be a member of APS-DLS and must be the presenting author on an accepted oral or poster presentation. The student’s mentor must also be a DLS member. Students who have previously received a travel grant are not eligible for a second travel grant.
Application material includes the two forms attached below, your proof of conference acceptance, and a letter of support from the mentor. Please submit these to pambowlan@lanl.gov by the deadline for the conference that you are attending.
Please note: DLS membership is required for both the student and their mentor.
Application Deadlines for 2023:
- APS March Meeting - February 1st, 2023
- CLEO - April 7th, 2023
- FIO/LS - September 9th, 2023
