Travel Grants for Students
The ACM Conference on Post-Quantum and Quantum-based Security (ACM PQQS 2026) encourages students, including both undergraduate and graduate students, to participate in the conference by providing a Conference Grant to cover registration and travel costs. The selection process will give preference to students in demonstrated financial need.
How to Apply
An application for a travel grant award should consist of the following three documents:
- The student’s Curriculum Vitae (CV).
- A statement from the student. This statement should include a summary of the student’s research interests and describe how the applicant will benefit from participating in the main conference and/or co-located workshops.
- A letter from the student’s research advisor with a clear justification of financial need.
Incomplete applications will not be considered.
Students applying for a travel grant can submit their application via EasyChair. An EasyChair account is required to apply.
