ANRW Travel Grants

The IRTF runs a programme of Diversity Travel Grants that can support early-career academics and PhD students from under-represented groups to attend the Applied Networking Research Workshop and other IRTF meetings co-located with the IETF-120 Meeting in Vancouver, BC, Canada, in July 2024

The selection criteria for IRTF Diversity Grants prioritize people who:

• Are from a demographic that is under-represented in the IRTF;
• Are PhD students or early-career academics (PhD students should have completed at least one year of full-time study in their PhD programme; early-career academics should be within their first four years of paid post-PhD employment at a University);
• Can demonstrate engagement with research of relevance to the IRTF (work with a focus on congestion control, transport protocols, network measurement or path-aware networking is especially encouraged, but we will consider work of relevance to all areas of IRTF).

Applications deadlines are as follows:

Diversity grant application deadline	May 10, 2024
Diversity grant notification deadline	May 24, 2024
ANRW and IETF-120 Meeting in Vancouver	July 20-26, 2024
