IEEE WiMob 2026 – WICE Travel Grants for Female Student Researchers

Dear Authors and Participants,

We are pleased to offer two Student Travel Grants to female student researchers who will participate in IEEE WiMob 2026. These grants, funded by IEEE WICE (Women in Communications Engineering), aim to support participation of female students in the conference. Each grant is up to USD 1000, based on actual expenses and reimbursed after the event. Grants are awarded on a competitive basis; applicants must arrange their own travel and have additional funding since the grant is a partial contribution.

Eligibility criteria

• The applicant must be a female student (Master’s or Ph.D.) in engineering or a related field.
• The applicant must be a co-author (preferably first author) of an accepted paper and must attend and present the paper at the conference. The paper must be registered and uploaded in its final form. The applicant must commit to presenting the paper (signed statement required). Non-authors can apply if they are registered and provide motivation.
• The applicant must be based outside France.
• Proof of student status is required (student ID or university attestation).

Application requirements

• Complete CV, including publications.
• Signed statement confirming the applicant will present the paper.
• Reference letter from the academic advisor (may be submitted directly via EDAS).
• A brief statement of financial need.
