ESA Academy Student Sponsorship
The ESA Education Office is pleased to sponsor of up to 4 tertiary education students to attend the European Space Weather Week in the frame of the ESA Academy Conference Student Sponsorship programme. The sponsorship will cover the participation to the training course in Kiruna and the conference in Umeå. Both the training course registration fee (including accommodation, some meals, activities and train between training course and conference) and the Conference early bird student registration fee will be directly paid by ESA Education Office. Additionally, the sponsorship will provide a maximum reimbursement of EUR 350 towards travel (to training course and from Conference) and EUR 350 toward accommodation expenses in Umeå (5 nights), which will be reimbursed via a single bank transfer after the event and will only be paid upon submission of receipts.
To be eligible for an ESA Academy Student Sponsorship, students must fulfil the following criteria at the time of application:
- individually present an accepted contribution at the conference (oral presentation, poster, other).
- be minimum 18 years old at the time of the conference;
- be a citizen of an ESA Member State, Associate Member, or Canada;
- be enrolled as a student (Bsc, Msc or Ph.D.) in a tertiary education academic programme (not graduating before the Conference);
- not benefit from an overlapping financial support to attend this conference, unless duly justified;
- agree with the conditions of the ESA Academy’s Privacy Policy
