Our Awards

Apply for a CANVAS travel award

Travel awards are one of the most valued member benefits offered by ASA, CSSA, and SSSA. These awards provide financial support for students and professionals to share their research, expand their networks, and grow their careers at leading scientific meetings and programs.

Each year, members may apply for travel support to attend CANVAS as well as other conferences and specialized programs. Award opportunities vary by audience and focus, but all are designed to make professional development more accessible.

More than travel: Career growth for students

Our travel awards are focused on ensuring that cost isn't keeping you from experiencing CANVAS. But they also offer other benefits, as well. 

These awards are worth a look for anyone who wants to get the most out of CANVAS.
