The College of Education supports the scholarly development of our graduate students. As a part of this support, the COE provides funding for a limited number of travel awards to support the cost of expenses.

 

Graduate students seeking this support must be enrolled in at least six (6) hours of course work or dissertation during the semester the travel occurs. Students are limited to receive college funds for one conference per academic year, and no more than twice in a three-year period. The funds support student who are presenting research at a national or international conference. Students who have not received funding from the college in the last two years are encouraged to apply. 

The maximum amount to be awarded is $500. Virtual conferences are funded for registration costs up to $250. Funding is not available for state, regional, or local presentation. Applicants must show proof of conference letter acceptance in their name. If you are also awarded travel funds from the Toulouse Graduate school, the reimbursement will be combined with the College of Education Funds. 

Our office accepts travel fund applications from September 1st of the academic year to May 31st or until funds are no longer available.

Follow the link here to apply.

We do not accept applications and requests that are submitted after a conference has occured.

The student is responsible for turning in receipts within two (2) weeks of the scheduled end of the conference.

The departments will process the student's allotted reimbursement for the conference registration and travel. Please submit proof of all purchases, showing a zero (0) balance, to your designated contact in your department. Final processing is completed by UNT Travel and placed into your direct deposit account.

If you have any questions, or would like to check the status of your application, reach out to coe-info@unt.edu.
