SCHOLARSHIPS
The 9th European Conference on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN 2012), with generous donations from the conference
sponsors, offers scholarships to support students and researchers to attend
the conference.
Update: the scholarship applications are closed. We received a whopping 75
applications, and were able to grant 10 scholarships.
Who should apply
Funding is available to graduate and doctoral students from any educational
institution in the world. Applications from postdocs and researchers from
developing countries are also encouraged.
We expect to award a minimum of 6 scholarships. Of these, a minimum of 3
scholarships are expressly reserved for students (graduate and doctoral) from
institutions belonging to the EIT ICT Labs thanks to a specific sponsorship from TrentoRISE.
What is provided
Each scholarship covers the EWSN 2012 full conference registration plus one
registration to a tutorial, and up to 700 EUR in support for accommodation and
travel. The amount of support awarded is based on the cost estimate, submitted
with the scholarship application; reimbursements are based on the actual
travel and accommodation expenses, which will be arranged through the
conference organization.
