Student Travel Scholarships

The IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Fault-Tolerant Computing and industrial supporters of FTCS-29 are soliciting applications for travel scholarships to partially offset the costs of students planning to attend FTCS-29 in Madison, Wisconsin. To be eligible, the applicant must be enrolled in a degree program at the time of FTCS, either in the US or elsewhere. Both authors of papers scheduled to appear in the symposium and non-authors are welcome to apply. It is anticipated that around 20 scholarships will be awarded in the range of $200-$1000, with the actual award size being determined by the distance involved and anticipated expenses.

Application Procedure

To apply, submit a writeup not exceeding 500 words summarizing your current research related to dependable computing and describing how it is relevant to FTCS, what you hope to learn by attending the symposium, and how you expect it to impact your future research directions. Also include your name, postal address, electronic mail address, telephone number, and fax number. Send your application to the chair of the scholarships committee:

The preferred submission format is an ASCII file by e-mail, but hardcopy by fax or postal mail will also be accepted.

Please send your application as soon as possible. The deadline for application will be posted on the FTCS website (www.ftcs.org). The awards will be announced in early May.

Questions can be directed to Prof. Reddy using the e-mail address above.
