Conferences

Attending a conference in an academic field or another area of interest is a wonderful way for students to network, discover career options and learn.

How to apply for conference funding

UWT students are eligible for Student Involvement's Conference and Training Fund. Global Honors students may also be eligible for the IIGE Conference & Travel Grant (up to $750). Contact the IIGE office at ghonors@uw.edu for information on the IIGE Conference & Travel Grant.

National and Regional Honors Conferences

Each year, Global Honors faculty and staff attend the National Collegiate Honors Council (NCHC) conference (typically held in November) and the Western Regional Honors Council (WRHC) conference (typically held in March or April). Proposals may be considered for students to attend too, with limited funding available from Global Honors to cover registration, transportation and/or accommodation. Contact the IIGE office at ghonors@uw.edu for more information.

*Eligibility: Students enrolled in the Global Honors Program, the Minor in Global Engagement, and the Minor in Innovation and Design.
