Student Travel Awards

Home : SSC2006 | en français | Large font | Small font

The SSC is again awarding travel supplements for students attending the 2006 SSC meeting. These awards are funded by the Society and its Sections, including the Biostatistics, Business and Industrial Statistics, and Survey Methods Sections.

Any full-time student giving a poster or a talk in a Contributed or Invited Paper Session, or participating in a Case Study Session, is eligible. In the case of multiple authors, only one award will be given per presentation. A student who has received an SSC Travel Award within the last two years is not eligible this year. No more than two awards will be awarded per university department.

This award is to be used towards travel costs to the conference, up to a maximum of $500.

To apply for the award, please send a cover letter, the title and abstract of your talk, and a short budget indicating the costs to be met by this award. Indicate the section (Biostatistics, Business and Industry, Survey Methods or General) to which your paper belongs. Have your supervisor send a statement (e-mail is preferable) indicating that you are currently a full-time student.

Send the required information to Professor Christian Léger (Christian.Leger@Umontreal.ca), the Chair of the Student Awards Subcommittee, by 7 April 2006. Ensure that SSC Travel Award appears in the subject line of your email.
