PROGRAM PRIORITIES
The Student/Post-doc Travel Grants program of the Program for Disease Ecology, Health and the Environment (DEHE) will be offered on a rolling basis to support graduate students and post-docs who want to attend DEHE-sponsored and/or DEHE-recommended events (i.e. those on our events calendar) or to support student travel to conduct DEHE relevant research as part of the student’s research program (i.e. research linking human health and environmental science). Travel grants are intended to offset travel costs and will be for a flat $250 per student/in-state-event and $500 per student/out-of-state-event. Students/Post-docs will be limited to submitting one Travel Grant application per year.
