The Computer Science and Business program may have funds available to support undergraduate travel to professional activities to include experiential learning, meetings, conferences etc. for professional development purposes. Typical awards range from $300 to $500 per student with a per-grant limit of $750/student. Actual funding levels will depend on the availability of funds and the number of students applying for funds. Multiple students requesting support to attend the same meeting will be asked to share expenses to the extent possible (e.g. transportation if by car or van, shared accommodations, etc.) Students are eligible to receive support for up to one meeting per academic year.

Travel grants are only available as reimbursement for expenses, not as cash advances (we can not pay tuition). Typical meeting expenses include abstract submission fees, meeting registration, transportation (airfare, mileage, vehicle rental), hotel accommodations, and meals (excluding alcohol). Reimbursable expenses must follow Lehigh Travel Policy available at the Controller’s website (http://financeadmin.lehigh.edu/controller)

To request travel funds submit:
  • Complete CSB Undergraduate Travel Grants google form
    • Attach: Upload an itemized budget for the total expense of attendance and your budget request to the google form. If the total cost of attendance exceeds your budget request, please indicate the source of funding to make up the difference (e.g. research advisor, college travel award, personal etc.)

Proposals are reviewed and accepted/declined on a bi-weekly rolling basis. Any questions should be directed to Andrea Goff (ahg212@lehigh.edu) or Liz Heffner (elh424@lehigh.edu).
