N^2 Women Student Fellowships

N^2 Women is pleased to announce the creation of N^2 Women Student Fellowship awards. These awards will partially cover a student's travel cost (up to $500) to a meeting where an N^2 Women event will be held. In exchange, the student must help organize the N^2 Women meeting. The benefit of doing the organization, in addition to the travel funds, is for the student to connect with the organizers of the conference who are, typically, leaders in the research field. We will arrange for a faculty or research member of N^2 Women to assist/mentor the student in this task.

Support for these N^2 Women Student Fellowship awards has been generously provided by Microsoft Research and by HP Labs. SIGMOBILE is also supporting these N^2 Women Student Fellowship awards by covering all the costs associated with the processing of Microsoft's funds.

To apply for a Student Fellowship, please send an email to n2women-info@acm.org with the following information:
 

  • About the conference the student wishes to attend:
    • Full title of the conference
    • Dates of the conference
    • Typical attendance at the conference
  • About the student:
    • University the student attends
    • Name of the student's advisor
    • URL to a current copy of the student's resume
    • A list of potential invited speakers or topic ideas for the N^2 Women meeting
We are particularly interested in students who would like to organize N^2 Women events for the following conferences: IEEE INFOCOM 2009, ICC 2009, ACM MobiHoc 2009, IEEE SECON 2009, MobiSys 2009, SIGCOMM 2009, ACM MobiCom 2009, and ACM SenSys 2009. There is, however, the possibility of funding for an N^2 Women Student Fellowship at other relevant venues.
