Travel Grants:
An IRTG Travel Grant can be awarded to PhD students for covering costs for the visit of a scientific conference, the participation in a workshop or the visit of a collaboration partner abroad. Only active participation which includes for example giving a talk about the own project or presenting a poster qualifies the planned activity for funding by the IRTG. In case of a workshop, the acquired certificate serves as confirmation of active participation.
If you fulfil the mentioned criteria and you would like to apply for a Travel Grant, then please fill in the Travel Grant Application form and forward it (as digital version, signatures not needed at this point) to the IRTG Office. The IRTG Office will then check your application for formal correctness and will then ask you to send in the original document including signatures. Please note that the completed application should be forwarded to the IRTG office at least two weeks prior to the planned activity.
