Travel Grant Program for the Mathematical Congress of the Americas (MCA)
Applications were invited from U.S.-based mathematical scientists for partial travel support to attend the MCA 2017 (July 24-28, 2017) in Montreal, Canada. This program was contingent on receiving a grant from the National Science Foundation. This travel grant program provided travel support for both U.S.-based mathematical scientists and U.S.-based early career mathematicians, with priority given to the latter. Applications were evaluated by a panel of mathematical scientists under the terms of a proposal submitted to the National Science Foundation (NSF) by the Society.
Eligibility
Support was available for U.S. mathematicians who were in one of the following categories:
- U.S. Early Career Mathematicians
- U.S. Mathematical Scientists
- In all cases, this funding was only open to those who held no external research support. This program was open to U.S. mathematicians only (U.S. mathematicians are either U.S. Citizens or affiliated with a U.S. institution at the time of travel).
Application Information
- Applications are no longer being accepted. Check back here in the future for information regarding MCA 2021.
Conditions on Funding
- Mathematicians accepting grants for partial support of the travel to MCA 2017 could not supplement them with any other NSF funds.
- An individual mathematician who did not accept a travel grant may use regular NSF grant funds, subject to the usual restrictions and prior approval requirements.
