Student Travel Grants

IUI-2019 is pleased to announce the availability of student support grants!

The objective of the student grants is to encourage students interested in subjects related to Intelligent User Interfaces to become active members of the community and participate in IUI-2019. To apply, the student should be enrolled as a student in an academic institution. Priority will be given to students who are authors of accepted papers or student consortium participants.

The chairs of IUI-2019 (general chairs, student consortium chairs, and student volunteer chairs) will decide on the allocation of the student grants. These will cover the conference registration fee and, depending on the availability of funds and number of eligible applicants, also travel and accommodation expenses.

The recipients of the grants will also be expected to help the conference organisation as student volunteers.

Application due: January 24th, 2019
Notifications: January 31st, 2019


Applications are now open! Apply by selecting "IUI 2019 Student Volunteers" on the Precision Conference website.

Applications may be submitted at any point up to the deadline. Please read instructions before starting the applications.
