Graduate Student Professional Development
Grant |
Thanks to the RU Parents and Family Fund, graduate students and undergraduate students in 5 year programs that will lead to a Masters at RU will have the opportunity to be reimbursed up to $250 for
presentation at one professional conference per academic year. To be reimbursed, students must be registered as degree seeking students.
These monies are first come, first serve and will only reimburse for registration and lodging fees. It is important to remember that in lodging fees, it will be a requirement for you to be as economical as possible (i.e. - 4 people to a room rather than 2).
Receipt of this grant
is contingent upon the student providing
evidence as a presenter.
If reimbursed for attendance, students will be required to attend a Forum in April 2010. At this forum, students will give a brief presentation about information learned at their professional conference and the impact it has had on them professionally. This forum will be for all of the RU community as well as the local professional community. Through this forum, students that attend conferences will help to share the knowledge with a larger base of people.
You must apply prior to travel for your conference and your Department Chair must sign off on the application.
Download a printable version of the Application here.
This application is due no less than 4 weeks prior to travel.
You will not be reimbursed until after your travel so plan to have money to pay for your costs during the conference.
Receipts will be required with the Reimbursement Form that you must fill out after attendance at a conference.
Download a printable version of the Reimbursement Form here and be sure to have your Department Chair sign off on it.
This worksheet and all receipts must be turned in to the Graduate College within 10 days after travel.
***Application does not guarantee funding!***
