Northeastern undergraduate and graduate students presenting their original work and research at academic conferences can apply for an NEIU Foundation Student Travel Award. These awards are made possible by private contributions to the NEIU Leader Fund, and provide funding for major travel expenses such as airfare and hotels/lodging. All Northeastern students are eligible to apply.
Funding is limited, and the selection process is competitive. *Funds have been exhausted for the 2022-2023 academic year. Funding will be replenished starting July 1, 2023.*
