Dear Student Leader:

The University of Michigan will host our annual Engineering Graduate Symposium on Friday, November 11, 2011, www.engin.umich.edu/gradsymposium<http://www.engin.umich.edu/gradsymposium>.  Travel grants are available for prospective engineering Ph.D. students (flights/mileage, hotels, local transportation, meals) residing in the United States.   More than 250 graduate engineering students will present posters on their current research projects.  Prospective graduate students are encouraged to attend to learn more about our departments, faculty, graduate student research, admissions, funding and life at the University of Michigan.  We welcome your application for a travel grant.  Also feel free to assist our effort by forwarding this email along to other engineering students and student societies in AISES, ASEE, MAES, NSBE, SHPE, SWE, TBP and elsewhere.


A short online application process is involved for travel grant consideration.  Junior level students will have the highest level of priority.  Applicants must reside within the United States.  Students should be within 1-2 years of attending graduate school and have a strong interest in research.  Those who are invited to attend this fall program will have all their expenses paid.  Full details can be found on the website.  Students should submit their completed applications by late September:



*         Travel grant application, http://www.engin.umich.edu/academics/gradprograms/gradsymposium/travelgrants.html

*         Electronic unofficial transcripts

*         Resume

*         One faculty letter of recommendation



Feel free to contact me directly with any questions.

Sincerely,
