The University Research Board (URB) in collaboration with the Office of Graduate Council (GC) is pleased to announce for the second year its Graduate Student Conference Award – 2024/2025. This award was initiated to encourage the graduate students to actively engage in research, present their research in high quality international venues, and interact with experts and scholars in their fields.
The URB will award annually up to ten awards to graduate students who demonstrate excellence in their research work that is worthy of presenting it at national, regional, or international conferences. The recipient will receive up to $2,000 for travel cost and conference registration in Europe and MENA region, or $2,500 elsewhere. All graduate students enrolled in a Master's or PhD programs within AUB are eligible to apply but can be awarded only once during their graduate studies. The graduate status must have an active enrollment status as a graduate student at the time of the conference.
All applications with the required documents should be completed and emailed to urbgradaward@aub.edu.lb at least 6 weeks before the conference date.
Please see the attached PDFs for further information and guidelines, and the application form.
