Participating in developmental conferences and seminars is important to master’s students’ growth as professionals, and is relevant experience for all career paths.

 

Master’s students participating in professional development conferences or seminars whether in person or virtually, can apply to the School of Professional Studies for up to $500 to cover registration costs, travel, and accommodation expenses through the Master’s Student Professional Development Fund. Students do not need to be presenting in order to be eligible and all master’s students, including students studying fully online or in low-residency programs, are encouraged to apply. 

All applications and associated documentation must be submitted online through UFunds. Given funding limitations, an application does not guarantee support. Some departments may have independent funds to support such travel; students should check with their Director of Graduate Study (DGS) of their department for more information. Please email egap-spsfunds@brown.edu with any questions you may have.
