AMS wants to help you attend our meetings – we offer several support opportunities to make this possible:
Student Travel Grants
AMS Annual Meeting Virtual Student Travel Grants afford an outstanding opportunity for students interested in attending the world’s largest yearly gathering for the weather, water, and climate community each year. AMS wants to encourage interactions among students, their peers, and professionals in the field. These virtual travel grants are intended for students who are not presenting at the meeting.
Student Awards
Specialty conferences and the AMS Annual Meeting also offer travel grants, and many also award certificates and cash prizes for the best student oral and poster presentations at the conference. Browse the upcoming meetings page to see which meetings offer opportunities to win awards.
