The application for funding is very straightforward and we encourage AERS students to take advantage of this opportunity. 

Please make sure to note that you have applied on the registration form.

AERS has a longstanding tradition of supporting students to attend meetings, and we would like to continue this tradition. Funding was available from AERS to help defray the cost of travel to the CERF 2017 Conference in Providence, RI, which was held on November 5-9, 2017.
