Description

The Association for Women in Mathematics Travel Grants enables women mathematicians to attend conferences in their fields and provides them a valuable opportunity to advance their research activities and their visibility in the research community. The Mathematics Travel Grants provide full or partial support for travel and subsistence for a meeting or conference in the applicant's field of specialization. Applicants must be women holding a doctorate (or equivalent) and with a work address in the USA (or home address, in the case of unemployed applicants). Anyone who has been awarded an AWM-NSF travel grant in the past two years is ineligible. Anyone receiving more than $2000 yearly in external governmental funding for travel is ineligible. Partial travel support from the applicant's institution or from a non-governmental agency does not, however, make the applicant ineligible. Decisions on the level of funding provided to successful applicants are based both on funds available to the panel and on our evaluation of whether the level requested was appropriate. These travel funds are provided by the Division of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) of the National Science Foundation. The conference or the applicant's research must be in an area supported by DMS. Applicants must first fill out a pre-survey questionnaire. After the applicants must have completed the pre-survey, they will have access to the online application. Application sites open approximately 45 days in advance of the deadline. Travel Grants application deadlines are February 15, May 15, and October 1. Please visit the award's website for more information.
