Student Travel Scholarship

The scholarship is designed to encourage students interested in electromagnetics with an emphasis on antennas. It is open world-wide to undergraduate juniors and seniors.
Students must show a demonstrated interest in electromagnetics and/or in antennas as well as be able to attend the AMTA 2016 symposium.Award winners will receive travel funding up to $2000 USD to attend the symposium as well as many other benefits. In order to apply, students must submit:

  • An essay about his/her interest in AMTA, antennas, radar, or/and electromagnetic related field, giving background and plans for the future.
  • A resume with course/grade listings.
  • A letter of recommendation from an AMTA Senior Member or Fellow who is not a sitting Board Member or a member of the scholarship selection committee.

Submittal deadline: Extended to May 9, 2016
