[Cheol Soo Park via Bldg-sim]

Student Travel Awards - Supporting students to attend BS2017

 

Travel to IBPSA Conferences can be an expensive business - especially for
students. In order to assist as many students as possible to participate in
BS 2017 in San Francisco, USA, IBPSA will grant a number of travel awards of
up to 1,000 USD to students presenting peer-reviewed papers. The number of
places is limited to a maximum of 5 grants and as a result is highly
competitive.

 

The selection committee bases its decisions upon the following selection
criteria:

*           need for financial assistance, evidenced in a letter of
recommendation from the student's supervisor/ advisor of studies (must be on
university letterhead);

*           overall quality of the peer-reviewed paper;

*           relevance of contribution to the field of and/or furthering the
effective application of building simulation.

 

To be eligible, the student must be:

*           enrolled in a graduate program related to building simulation at
the time of the conference; AND

*           the thesis project must be directly related to building
simulation.

 

Applications MUST be supported by a letter of recommendation from the
student's supervisor/ advisor / director of studies.

Applications for the award must be made by 15 January, 2017 via e-mail to
cheolspark at skku.ac.kr <mailto:cheolspark at skku.ac.kr> . The subject heading
of the e-mail should be "Student Travel Award" followed by the name of the
student.

 

The e-mail application must include the following:

       The student's name;

       The name of the program, department, faculty, and university; 

       The title of the PhD or Master's research;

       The name of the student's supervisor(s)/ advisor(s);

       The faculty recommendation letter on university letterhead in PDF
format.

 

The selection committee will base its decision upon a review of the letters
of support and the final manuscripts. 

 

IBPSA would like as many nominations as possible, so please contact the
chair of the Awards and Fellows Committee, Cheol-Soo Park, via
cheolspark at skku.ac.kr <mailto:cheolspark at skku.ac.kr>  to discuss a possible
nomination if required.

 

Payment will be made either to the academic department before the conference
or directly to the student at the conference.

 

Best Regards,

 

Cheol Soo Park, Ph.D.
