MSGC Student Travel Fund provides support for undergraduate students to travel to present original research at professional and academic conferences. Students may apply for an award up to $750 to offset travel costs. There are seven total awards per year with limited opportunities per semester. Application are considered on a rolling basis throughout the year but need to be completed at a minimum of 2 months prior to travel. 

For more information please see the MSGC Website.

Applications may be saved and completed at anytime. 

A travel report is due two weeks after the conference. The final report should be 1-2 (max) pages.  

Funded projects require a final report of 1.5 - 2 pages to be submitted to the MSGC office. Final presentations and final reports are the MSGC metrics for our MSGC SMART Objectives (a.k.a. the proof that we are accomplishing what we said we aimed to do). The purpose of presenting results is to share with others what was done, while purpose of the final report is to capture the impact of the internship on the individual. 

Please fill in your name and upload your final report. Please also consider separately sending your final report to your local MSGC affiliate representative. You can find your affiliates information here: https://spacegrant.montana.edu/members.html

Guidelines about how to write your final report can be found here: https://spacegrant.montana.edu/opportunities/finalreport.html
