Student Travel Grants – Victoria 2013

Canadian Theological Society
Student Travel Grant
Congress 2013
Victoria BC

In previous years, CTS received funding for an annual grant of $3075 from SSHRC to help subsidize costs associated with travel, accommodation and food for CTS members participating in the CTS annual conference. Students have always been listed as a priority for receiving this funding support. Last year SSHRC announced that this funding program had been terminated. This year the CTS Executive has approved a special new travel grant pool of $1500 from CTS funds. This grant will be only for CTS Student Members who present papers at the 2013 CTS Annual Conference in Victoria. It will be a travel subsidy, subsidizing only travel costs. Unlike previous years, accommodation and food costs will not be subsidized this year.

CTS travel grant forms will be available at the CTS Conference in Victoria. After the Victoria Conference, CTS student presenters applying for this travel grant should submit their completed travel grant forms and their travel receipts to the CTS Treasurer. Travel grant cheques will then be sent out over the summer.
