NSF Student Travel Grant for 2016 IEEE Global Communications Conference (IEEE GLOBECOM)

这笔旅行津贴将用于支持美国研究生参加2016年12月4日至8日在华盛顿举行的IEEE GLOBECOM 2016。IEEE GLOBECOM是IEEE通信学会(ComSoc)的两个旗舰会议之一。本次会议不仅提供技术论文演示，还提供广泛的其他教育形式，包括小组讨论、教程、行业演示、海报和学术和行业领袖的主题演讲。参加IEEE GLOBECOM对学生来说是非常有价值的。他们不仅可以接触到通信和网络领域最先进的研究成果，还可以有机会与世界各地机构的同行互动，与工业界和学术界的顶尖研究人员会面，并参与可能塑造该领域未来的讨论。这项拨款鼓励那些通常很难参加的学生的参与。旅行奖的获奖者将由旅行补助委员会选出，该委员会由IEEE GLOBECOM 2016学生旅行补助金联合主席组成。共有25名获奖者将被评选出来。获奖标准包括被会议接受的论文和对会议主题的研究兴趣，如课程作业和/或项目经验所表明的。在其他资格相似的情况下，妇女和少数族裔得到优先考虑。为避免利益冲突，遴选委员会中的教职员工的学生将不被考虑获得这一旅行津贴奖。这项学生旅行支持将使美国学生能够分享科学信息并激发他们在通信和网络领域的研究兴趣。

This travel grant will be used to support US based graduate students to attend IEEE GLOBECOM 2016, to be held in Washington, DC on December 4-8, 2016. IEEE GLOBECOM is one of two flagship conferences of the IEEE Communications Society (ComSoc). This conference offers not only technical paper presentations but also a wide range of other educational formats, including panels, tutorials, industry presentations, posters and keynote speeches by academic and industry leaders. Attending IEEE GLOBECOM is highly valuable for students. Not only will they be exposed to the state-of-the-art researches in the field of communications and networking, but also they can have the opportunity to interact with peers from institutions worldwide, meet with leading researchers from both industry and academia, and take part in discussions that may shape the future of the field.This grant encourages participation by students who would normally find it difficult to attend. Recipients of the travel awards will be selected by a Travel Grants Committee, formed by the IEEE GLOBECOM 2016 student travel grant co-chairs. A total of 25 awardees will be selected. Award selection criteria include papers accepted into the conference and research interests in the conference topics as demonstrated by coursework and/or project experience. Women and minorities are given preference when other qualifications are similar. To avoid conflicts of interest, the students of the faculty in the selection committee will not be considered for this travel grant award. This student travel support will enable sharing scientific information and stimulating research interests for U.S. based students in the field of communications and networking.
