As in past years, the 2004 IEEE
Radar Conference is soliciting papers from full time students interested in
attending the conference. A limited amount of funding is available to support
travel and conference fees for students whose papers are accepted. Because the
source of this funding is the U.S. Government, only U.S. citizens are eligible
for these grants. The 2004 IEEE Radar Conference will provide airfare,
meals and lodging support of up to $1000 per student, based on available
funding. In addition, students selected will receive a complimentary conference
registration including a copy of the proceedings on CD-ROM. Student papers will
be presented in a special poster session and will be published in the
Conference Proceedings. Students are also encouraged to seek funding from their
local college or university. A prize for the best student paper will be
presented to the first author of that paper.
To qualify for this
support, interested students must submit a suitable radar paper addressing one
of the topics listed in the Call for Papers on the conference web site (www.radar04.org/papers/).
In addition, students who wish to apply for travel support must submit a letter
from their department head stating that they are a full-time graduate or
undergraduate student. Students must state in a cover letter accompanying their
paper that they wish to apply for a grant for travel support and that they are
U.S. citizens. Proof of citizenship may be required. Faculty members may be
coauthors of student papers, but substantially all of the work must be done by
the student, and the student must be the first author.
Reimbursement will be provided at the conference by the
conference treasurer upon presentation of receipts for valid expenses.
Prospective student authors are asked to submit
their papers, using the same guidelines listed in the conference Call For
Papers by October 30, 2003. Authors of selected papers will be notified
by December 30, 2003. These papers will be evaluated by the conference
organizing committee.
Although travel support cannot be provided
them under this program, foreign student authors are encouraged to submit
papers under the guidelines given above. Foreign student authors are eligible
to compete for the best student paper prize. Additionally, the web site (www.radar04.org) should be
consulted for possible further programs directed toward encouraging student
participation.
