The School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) has a limited number of travel grants (up to $450/grant) available for graduate students who are:
- presenting a technical paper or poster at a professional society conference; or
- traveling for a research-related activity.
Eligible students include:
- enrolled SEAS graduate students; or
- graduate students with a primary SEAS faculty adviser.
Funds are currently available on a first-come-first-serve basis for travel taking place during July 1, 2025 – June 30, 2026. All requests for travel funds must adhere to Princeton University’s public health guidelines. Please check the website Travel Health & Safety for information and updates.
Graduate students who are G2 or above are eligible for one travel grant per fiscal year, contingent on their faculty advisor’s eligibility to receive travel grant funding for up to two students per year. All Requests for SEAS Travel Grants must be received at least two weeks in advance of the intended travel date, or it cannot be considered for funding. Faculty advisers must provide a statement supporting the application, indicating the value of the travel towards the advisee’s overall degree progress, as well as the need for SEAS support.
