Dear BIS Students: The Office of Student Scholarship, Creative Activities, and Research (OSCAR) is accepting applications to the Undergraduate Student Travel Fund (USTF) as part of Mason’s Students as Scholars initiative. The USTF supports undergraduates who are traveling to present their scholarship at regional or national events (i.e., conferences, performances, forums, exhibitions). While applications submitted by students participating in the Undergraduate Research Scholars Program (URSP) will receive preference for travel funding, all Mason students who are engaged in original scholarly work are strongly encouraged to apply. The upcoming deadline for USTF applications is Friday, April 27. Any students who are currently engaging in scholarship, creative activities, or research are encouraged to apply. Complete details about this process are available at: http://oscar.gmu.edu/students/ustf-main.cfm.
