We are pleased to announce the International Society of Hymenopterists (ISH) student travel award competition, in support of students who plan present their research at the International Congress of Entomology (ICE) in Daegu, Korea (August 2012). Four awards will be available, ranging from $500–$2000. Awardees are expected to present their research at the ICE and are highly encouraged to attend the ISH business meeting. To submit an application:

1) Join the Society! The 2012 dues are only $15 for students, and we have at least 20 sponsored memberships available.
2) Submit a 2-page (maximum) proposal that describes the following:
  1. Intellectual merit – A summary of the talk to be presented, including relevance to the field of Hymenoptera research.
  2. Broader impacts – How travel to the ICE will be a transformative experience for you (e.g., are there opportunities to collaborate, network, collect important specimens, etc.?)
  3. Availability of other funding – Please indicate whether you have additional funding or the possibility of acquiring matching funds.
  4. Your contact information.

3) Attach a letter (PDF or email preferred) from your adviser that verifies your research, your available funding (if applicable) and your enrollment in that graduate program.
