Scholarships for Fifth ISCAR Congress Quebec City, Canada 2017
We are pleased to announce that we intend to award up to 4 scholarships to assist doctoral researchers, early career academics and non- or low-salaried researchers to attend ISCAR 2017. Scholarships are offered to support attendance at Congress but will not support subsistence expenses.
Please note that scholarships will only be available to people who are not able to secure funding* from their university or workplace and who have a paper, symposium, round table, or PhD conference presentation acceptable to the conference organisers.
The maximum award is $2,000CDN per person (with the possibility of some extra funding if inter-continental travel costs are very high).
