Student Grant Programme

Thanks to the sponsorship of European Laboratories and Institutions and to specific contributions from Industrial partners, a certain number of grants will be offered to young scientists to attend EPAC’08. There are two types of grants available:

EPS-AG Grants

for young graduate students under 30 years of age. Details are available at the EPS-AG Website. Applications must be made by using the on-line application form via JACoW profiles and accounts, and a letter of support signed by the Supervisor, Head of the Institute, Laboratory or University Department where the young scientist is working/studying must reach the EPAC'08 Local Conference Secretariat (secretariat@epac08.org), also by 16 January 2008.

Fellowships by Industry

offered to young scientists who reside in low income countries and who are working in the field of accelerator physics, accelerator associated technologies or accelerator applications. They will be selected from the list of applicants for EPAC’08 Grants following specific criteria and taking into account comments made by the sponsor. The financial support will cover full conference registration, as well as travel and living expenses (selected persons will be notified in due course of the exact amount and method of payment).

In addition to that, please consult the Accelerator Prizes page for details of the prizes offered to PhD and diploma students and for student poster presentation.

DEADLINE FOR APPLICATIONS IS 16 January 2008
