Support for presenting research at conferences is available from various UCF resources. More information about presentation funding offered via the College of Graduate Studies is linked here.
The UCF SGA supports conference travel. To procure funding, individual graduate students can make funding requests before their planned travel. Requests should be submitted at least four weeks in advance. Travelers may do so by completing the KnightConnect form linked here. After signing into the portal, go to “Forms” and then search “Conference” in the search bar. The form is titled “Conference Registration and Travel (CRT) – Allocation Funding Request Form.” The Funding Estimate form has been designed so that applicants can develop approximations of the funds they may receive. The Spending Policy and Conference, Registration, and Travel Cheat Sheet have also been developed to provide further background about the process (i.e., limitations, restrictions, required materials). Questions about this process can be directed to sga_crt@ucf.edu.
If you are interested in presenting your research at a conference, then consult with your research advisor first. Next, check with the chair of the SGA’s Conference, Registration, and Travel Committee chair to ensure applications are being accepted at the current time.
