*** CALL FOR APPLICATIONS: STUDENT MENTORING PROGRAM *** 

The Student Mentoring Program is an opportunity to network with senior colleagues and meet peers.
Interested students can apply through a simple, non-competitive procedure, by providing a short
description of why they want to participate in the conference, the name of their advisor, and their
CV. The student's adviser should endorse the student's application and will be contacted once the 
application is submitted.

All applications will be reviewed by the Student Mentor Committee. The objective is to host as many
motivated students as possible in the program.

*** STUDENT TRAVEL AWARDS - FOR STUDENTS AT US INSTITUTIONS *** 

Several travel awards are sponsored by the National Science Foundation (NSF) for students enrolled
in US institutions and participating in the Student Mentoring Program. Students with accepted
posters or papers must apply to and participate in the Student Mentoring Program to be eligible for 
the travel award.

Notice of travel awards will be made prior to the conference. The travel awards will be distributed
post-conference in the form of reimbursements against actual travel, registration, and accommodation
expenses submitted by the student. The travel award will be contingent on the participating of the 
awarded student in the Student Mentoring Program at Cluster 2019.
