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.).
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).
Students are eligible to receive support for up to one meeting per academic year. To be considered, please complete and submit the google form with itemized budget by October 1, March 1st and May 1st to be considered. Applications received after these dates will not be reviewed until the next cycle.
Any questions should be directed to Andrea Goff (ahg212@lehigh.edu).
