Springer Travel Awards

Each year the Urban Ecosystem Ecology Section, with support from Springer, gives Travel Awards to students to assist with attending the annual Ecological Society of America Conference. We are soliciting applications for the annual UEE travel grant for ESA 2018.

The ESA Urban Ecosystem Ecology Section offers student travel awards for student members of the section to attend the ESA Annual Meeting this August in New Orleans, LA.

Travel awards are partially supported by Springer on behalf of the journal Urban Ecosystems and typically range from $300 to $400 per student.

Please send a statement of research interests and statement of need (no more than 500 words combined), the title and abstract of your accepted ESA abstract, whether your presentation is oral or a poster, and your student status (undergrad, MS, PhD). You must also have one letter of recommendation sent directly to the email address below.

Send your application materials with the subject line “UEE Travel Award” to Dr. Mitchell Pavao-Zuckerman at mpzucker@nullumd.edu. Applications are due July 28, 2018!

NOTE: Only UEE section members are eligible to apply. It only costs $5.00 to join the section.
