Stipends

  • We have a limited number of stipends (800 euro) to support PhD students to attend the workshop. Priority will be given to students who have little other funding (i.e. from institutions without access to large travel funds), and who would most benefit from attending (i.e. those who are working on MPC or related areas). If you would like to be considered then please:
    • Send an email containing at least two paragraphs addressing why you should be funded, where you are a student, who your PhD supervisor is, and what your thesis topic is about to malene.andersen@cs.au.dk.
    • Have your supervisor confirm your application by email.
  • The deadline for stipend applications was March 15th.
