Graduate Conference Travel Fund Request
The History Department strongly encourages graduate student participation in regional and
national conferences as part of their graduate education. To that end, the Department has limited
travel funds available to offset conference travel expenses. This funding is only available to
those delivering papers at conferences.
In seeking funding for conference travel, you should apply to the Department first since many
other funding sources expect matching funds from your department. After that, you can apply for
funding from: 1) Arts & Sciences; 2) Academic Affairs; 3) Extramural sources such as
professional organizations, conference conveners, etc. Remember to make your applications in
this order.
The application process:
1. Complete the information on page 2 of this form.
2. Attach a copy of the email or confirmation letter from the conference organizing
committee showing the acceptance of your paper. Scan if necessary.
3. Submit the completed form and supporting document(s) to Doug Johnson
(djohnson@uwyo.edu) and Dr. Michael Brose (mbrose@uwyo.edu).
