Student Travel Support for the IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) 2013. To Be Held in Budapest, Hungary, June 9-13,2013.

2013 IEEE国际通信会议（ICC）将于2013年6月9日至13日在匈牙利布达佩斯举行。这个卓越的技术会议是IEEE通信协会的旗舰会议，也是展示通信领域新研究成果的主要场所。它被该领域的研究人员和实践者广泛参加。参加国际商会这样的会议对研究生的发展至关重要。参与者有机会展示他们的工作，参加小组讨论和主题会议，并与数百名在该领域进行前沿研究的其他人进行互动。更广泛的影响：该提案为大约15名在美国的研究生提供旅费支持，以参加2013年首次在东欧举行的首次会议。旅行奖将针对研究生，特别是女性和少数族裔学生，因为参加会议是他们教育经历的重要组成部分，而他们的旅行资金往往有限。研究界和工程工作人员受益于学生在管道中的改进，并引入新的研究人员的观点。

The 2013 IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) will be held in Budapest, Hungary from June 9 to June 13, 2013. This preeminent technical conference is the flagship conference of the IEEE Communications Society, and the primary venue for presenting new research results in the area of communications. It is widely attended by researchers and practitioners in the field. Attending conferences such as ICC is of paramount importance for the development of graduate students. Participants have the opportunity to present their work, attend panel and keynote sessions, and interact with hundreds of others performing leading-edge research in the field. Broader Impact: This proposal provides travel support for approximately fifteen graduate students in the United States to attend this premiere conference, which will be held for the first time to Eastern Europe in 2013. The travel awards will target graduate students, in particular, women and under-represented minority students, since attending conferences is an important part of their educational experience, and they often have limited travel funds. The research community and the Engineering workforce benefit from the improvement of students in the pipeline, and the introduction of new researcher perspectives.
