Priority will be given to students attending national or international conferences of major professional organizations. We want particularly to help students toward the end of their graduate careers gain experience and make contacts important to their intellectual and professional development and to their job prospects. However, the Fellowship Committee will hold aside a certain amount of funding for students presenting original work at prestigious conferences early in their careers (e.g., before advancing to candidacy).

Preference will be given to students who have not had an ARHU Travel Award in the past, unless it was an early career award .Awards will not be given for travel that has already taken place.
