Domestic and International Travel Grants

AGSC Travel Grants are designed to support the research and professional development of Georgia State and Georgia Tech faculty. Funding can be used for research travel or to present a paper at an academic conference. Grants for international travel are in the amount of $2,500, and grants for domestic travel are $1000 each (AGSC reserves the right to modify the number and amounts of the awards if the applications so warrant).

Please note that any international travel must be approved by the US Department of Education 45 days in advance of a scheduled flight and must comply with the Fly America Act. This travel grant is funded by the US Department of Education Title VI grant.

All faculty are encouraged to apply, with preference where applicable to applicants who have limited access to research or conference travel support. Travel award recipients may be invited to present at the annual Atlanta Global Studies Symposium or an AGSC research seminar. Grant funds may be used for airfare, lodging, per diem, conference registration fee etc.
