A limited number of scholarships will be provided to authors of accepted papers in order to subsidize travel, registration, and housing expenses for UAI 2018. Any author can apply, but students authors will be given priority.
Student recipients may be asked to help with several hours of volunteer work, where 'helping' mostly means sitting behind the desk, helping with distribution of materials, solving small problems with registrations and equipment, and the like. We will make sure you will not have any duties during the session when your paper is scheduled to be presented.
Authors wishing to receive a UAI 2018 scholarship are asked to send an email with the following information:
Additionally, for students:
Applications should be emailed with the title "UAI-18 SCHOLARSHIP", to: uai2018org@gmail.com before June 30, 2018. A decision will be notified by July 7, 2018.
Please note: even if your scholarship is accepted, you may only receive a part of the amount you applied for. However, successful applicants will also receive free registration (to tutorials, conference and workshops).
In addition to Travel Scholarships, there will a small number of student volunteer positions. A student volunteer receives free registration to UAI 2018 (tutorials, conference and worskshops). If you have already submitted a Travel Scholarship application, we will automatically consider you also for volunteering if we cannot give you a travel scholarship, so you need not do anything else.
If you are a student but not an author, please send the following information to uai2018org@gmail.com, with the subject UAI-18 VOLUNTEERING and with the following contents:
We will announce the decisions for volunteers by July 7, 2018.
