A limited number of student grants are available to help pay for travel, accommodations, and NDSS Symposium registration fees for full-time students attending the 25th annual Network and Distributed System Security (NDSS) Symposium, 18 – 21 February 2018 in San Diego, California.

The NDSS host, Internet Society, administers two types of student travel grants.

  • U.S.-based students: This grant is only available to graduate and undergraduate students from U.S.-based educational institutions.  You need not be a U.S. citizen, just studying at a U.S.-based institution.  Special considerations will be given to first-time attendees.
  • Non-U.S. based students: This grant is available to graduate and undergraduate students from non-U.S. based educational institutions. Special consideration will be given to students from emerging economies.

Both travel grants also strongly encourage applications from women and from students from under-represented minority communities.  Where you attend school determines to which travel grant you should apply.
