NSF Travel Grant to Support Student Authors to Attend the 29th North American Power Symposium, to be held on October 12-13, 1997 in Laramie, Wyoming

该提案要求为一些电气工程专业的学生（主修电力工程）提供旅行支持，以参加1997年10月12日至13日在怀俄明州拉勒米市怀俄明大学校园（UW）举行的第29届年度北美电力研讨会（NAPS）。对于计划参加这次会议的研究生来说，旅行费用可能是一个障碍。nap是由电气和电子工程师协会（IEEE）和北美大陆的一所大学主办的年度会议。在这个会议上，鼓励大学教授和学生在他们工作的早期阶段向同事们展示他们的研究成果。nap的参与者来自国内主要大学的电气工程系，对电力工程的不同领域有研究兴趣，有些来自国外的大学，有些来自工业界。nap的作者被要求参加会议并展示他们的论文。本提案讨论了美国国家科学基金会（National Science Foundation）为参加研讨会的学生作者申请旅行支持的理由。报告还讨论了选择学生作者的范围和标准、为专题讨论会计划的活动以及拟议的旅行补助金的影响。

ECS-9712863 Chowdhury This proposal requests travel support for a number of electrical engineering students (with a major in power engineering) across the United States to attend the 29th annual North American Power Symposium (NAPS) to be held on October 12-13, 1997 at the University of Wyoming campus (UW), Laramie, Wyoming. Travel expenses could be a deterrent for graduate students planning to attend this conference. NAPS is an annual conference, sponsored by the Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and a university on the North American Continent. At this conference, university professors and students are encouraged to present the results of their research among colleagues at an early stage in their work. NAPS participants are from the electrical engineering departments of major universities in the country with research interests in different areas of power engineering, some from universities abroad, and some from industry. NAPS authors are required to attend the conference and present their papers. This proposal discusses the justification for travel support, requested from the National Science Foundation, for student authors attending the symposium. It also discusses coverage and criteria for selection of student authors, activities planned for the symposium, and the impact of the proposed travel grant.
