Dear Colleagues:
Tomorrow is the deadline for ABC’s Graduate Student Travel Scholarship for this year’s International Conference in Ireland. This deadline will not be extended. Please forward the below information to any of your graduate students attending the conference.
The Association for Business Communication is pleased to announce the availability of several $400 travel scholarships to support graduate students presenting at the 2017 International Conference in Ireland. These scholarships will be awarded to graduate students presenting papers on business communication research or pedagogical innovations. The scholarships will be presented at the Presidential Dinner during the conference and can be used to reimburse travel expenses and/or ABC annual dues.
Eligible applicants must be enrolled in a graduate program at the time of the conference and must have been accepted to present at the conference. Scholarships will be awarded based on both merit and need, with preference given to first-time attendees. Scholarship recipients will be asked to donate two hours of service at the conference (e.g., staffing the registration table, helping to coordinate the silent auction, etc.).
To be considered for a scholarship, please complete this application no later than August 15, 2017. Please direct any questions about these scholarships to the chair of the Graduate Studies Committee, Matt Sharp.
