The purpose of the UCLA Doctoral Student Travel Grant (DTG) is to encourage UCLA doctoral students to present their work and network at conferences in their field, to support travel associated with off-campus research and to enable students to take advantage of off-campus professional development opportunities. Each new and continuing doctoral student will be provided up to $1,000 total reimbursement that can be used, in whole or in part, at any time through the student’s seventh year of enrollment in the doctoral program, as long as the student and the activities meet the eligibility requirements. Students who were awarded the Dissertation Year Fellowship (DYF) in 2015–16 or earlier will not be eligible for this program. EXCEPTION: 2015–16 DYF awardees who activated their fellowship in Winter 2016 will be eligible as long as they are receiving DYF funding. Once the DYF funding has ended, the student is no longer eligible.
Stipend: Up to $1,000 reimbursement during the student's first seven years of doctoral study. $100 minimum for each reimbursement request.
UCLA doctoral students with PhD, DEnv, DrPH and DMA degree objectives are eligible. Students enrolled in the Medicine MD, Dentistry DDS, and Law JD programs are not eligible. Students in self-supporting programs (e.g., EdD) are not eligible. Doctoral students may or may not be advanced to candidacy at the time of travel. Students must engage in the activity and seek reimbursement within seven years of entering the doctoral program. Students in their eighth doctoral year and beyond are not eligible for this funding. Students must consult with and obtain the signature of their faculty mentor before submitting the reimbursement request(s). Student must not have any unresolved incompletes (I grades) on record at the time the travel took place. Student must have been registered/enrolled in a minimum of 12 units during the academic term in which the research/travel/professional activity took place and for which reimbursement is being requested. For summer travel, the student must have met this requirement in the previous Spring quarter and must register/enroll in the subsequent fall. In absentia registration is acceptable. Students on Filing Fee are not eligible for reimbursement of expenses incurred while on Filing Fee. Students cannot request reimbursement for expenses incurred during an approved leave of absence, while lapsed (unapproved leave), or after withdrawing from the university.
