Conference Travel Fund

The Conference Travel Fund is a grant provided by the University of Bristol to assist students with travel costs when presenting research at a conference away from Bristol. The fund can provide successful applicants with up to £300 towards their travel costs. The fund is provided by the Alumni Grant, which was established in 1982 by staff and alumni who wanted to help current students have a rich and rewarding university experience. It is funded by donations from thousands of alumni and friends of the University. Students must be presenting their research at a conference outside of Bristol and should have exhausted all other funding sources before applying, such as scholarships, studentships, or research group funds. The fund is available to undergraduates, postgraduate taught/research students, and both home and EU/international fee-paying students who are fully registered at the time of application and conference attendance.
