Travel Grant Support
Thanks to a contribution from International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth’s Interior, a travel grant will be available to support students in covering part of their travel expenses, ensuring that this unique training opportunity remains accessible to the international community. Please note that the grant will be administered directly by IAVCEI, in agreement with the organising team, and will be provided as a reimbursement to be claimed after the school. Further details will be communicated only to the 16 selected participants. Applicants must be members of IAVCEI to be eligible for the grant.
All participants will receive a certificate of attendance at the end of the programme. On request, the organizing team can provide a detailed breakdown of the programme and contact hours for those wishing to apply for academic credits (ECTS/CFU).
A Best Student Prize will be awarded based on the results of a final assessment at the end of the school and will be open to PhD and MSc students only.
