The SIGCHI Student Travel Grant (SSTG) program is intended to enable
students who lack other support opportunities to attend SIGCHI sponsored or
co-sponsored conferences, such as the upcoming ACM RecSys 2020 in Rio de
Janeiro, Brazil. This travel grant is intended to support students whose
intention is to *present* at a SIGCHI sponsored conference, not just
attend. Our *first* priority is to offer provisional grants to students
*before* they submit papers, so that if a submission is accepted, the
student can count on having a grant awarded for travel to the conference.
Our *second* priority is to offer grants to students who have papers and
other publications accepted for a conference.
The SIGCHI Student Travel Grant program provides needs-based financial
assistance to students who hope to present at selected SIGCHI sponsored or
co-sponsored conferences. Each award consists of reimbursements of $1,800
USD, awarded through the SIGCHI Travel Grant System, to partially cover
conference registration and travel expenses including airfare (economy
flights only), accommodation, subsistence, and other expenses necessary for
attending the conference. Complimentary registration is not provided as
part of the grant, but must be covered from the grant.
The deadline of the grant application for ACM RecSys 2020 is *Feb 1, 2020*
-- before the deadline of paper submissions. If you are willing to apply
for the grant, start preparing your application as soon as possible. For
