Student Travel Support

---

ESPP offers travel support for our students to attend national and international conferences and workshops, to collect data in the field. Application is accepted throughout the year.

To request travel support, students should contact espp@msu.edu, and are encouraged to provide the following details:

1. Purpose of travel: Specify whether it is for a conference, fieldwork, or data collection. In the case of a conference, indicate if the student will be presenting a paper and clarify their role.
2. Exploration of other funding avenues: Has the student pursued assistance from alternative sources, such as their primary program, the conference organizers, their home college, the graduate school, or their advisor (particularly if the student is working on the advisor's project)?
3. Support letter from the advisor: A letter from the advisor will be helpful to underscore the necessity and significance of the travel.
4. Comprehensive budget: Provide a breakdown of the entire trip's expenses. Even if the student is seeking partial support, the budget should encompass all costs, including those covered by other funding sources.

Please contact espp@msu.edu if you have more questions.
