* IAS Travel grants: The International Association of Sedimentologists (IAS) offers IAS Student Members a travel grant for attending our SPA-Short Course. Participants of SPA-Short Course first need to become a member of IAS. The application procedure is simple and requires submitting a short letter of motivation and proof of enrolment as a PhD student, together with some specific details about location and travel distance, affiliation, etc. Application details can be found on IAS homepage: https://www.sedimentologists.org/resources/grants/.
Please note: The application deadline for an IAS travel grant is June 8, 2025!

Please note the maximum number of participants is limited to 25. We therefore will select participants according to their date of registration.

Payment is then seen as official confirmation of your participation in the short course.
