CNST-University of Maryland Cooperative Program: Travel Awards

What is the travel award?

One of the goals of the Cooperative Program is to support U.S. Industrial, University, and Government research communities in the use of CNST Nanofabrication Facility and the CNST Collaborative Research Facilities. To help new users establish a working relationship with the CNST, the Cooperative Program will provide competitively awarded travel grants for approved users of the CNST facilities.

Award amounts will be provided to cover up to $1000 of travel and local expenses for researchers traveling beyond a normal commuting distance to use the CNST facilities. Highest consideration for awards will be given to first-time users, to scientists at the early stages of their careers, and for expenses related to graduate student use of the facilities.

For more informaton, please visit University of Maryland’s Nanocenter Website. Information on the application process is available on their Travel Grants Applications webpage. To actually apply, you will need to register and log on to their intranet; instructions for how to do this are included on their webpage.
