N^2 Women offers fellowships covering travel costs for female graduate students
planning to attend premier technical conferences in the fields of networking
and communications. In exchange, the student must help organize the N^2 Women
meeting at that conference.
The benefit of doing the organization, in addition to the travel funds, is for
the student to connect with the organizers of the conference who are,
typically, leaders in the research field. Moreover, N^2 Women will arrange for
a faculty or research member of N^2 Women to assist/mentor the student in this
task.
Funding for these fellowships has generously been provided by HP Labs,
Microsoft Research, and SIGMOBILE. These awards will partially cover a
student's travel cost (up to $500) to a meeting where an N^2 Women event will
be held.
To apply for a fellowship, please see:
http://committees.comsoc.org/n2women/ and click the Fellowships link.
We are particularly interested in students organizing events at the following
venues, with deadlines for applying for a fellowship as shown.
SenSys 9/15/12
Globecom 10/01/12
Please pass this information along to all female graduate students who may be
interested!
Sincerely,
Katia Jaffres-Runser and Yingshu Li

Networking Networking Women (N^2 Women) is a discipline-specific community for
researchers in the communications and networking research fields. The main goal
of N^2 Women is to foster connections among the under-represented women in
computer networking and related research fields. N^2 Women allows women to
connect with other women who share the same research interests, who attend the
same conferences, who face the same career hurdles, and who experience the same
obstacles. For more information or to join, please see:
www.comsoc.org/n2women.
N^2 Women is an ACM SIGMOBILE program that is supported by the IEEE
Communications Society, Microsoft Research and HP Labs.
