Travel
If you are pursuing research in the US or international destinations, it is your responsibility to understand and manage any travel approval requirements for your travel destination. Allow adequate time for travel planning and ask questions!
You are responsible for arranging your own travel in a timely, safe fashion, regardless of the funding source. Increased travel costs due to late or poor planning will not be funded.
When developing your budget, please carefully review the travel section on the Eligible Expenses page for specific details about types of travel expenses before submitting a budget with your undergraduate research funding application. If your application involves travel, you will also be required to complete a field trip release form in MiddApply.
International Travel Considerations
Review information on the Global Ops website. You will need to register your international travel. Depending on your research location, your travel may need to be reviewed and approved by Global Ops. This process may up to two months, so start this process well in advance. If a review from Global Ops is required, the Undergraduate Research Office requires you to submit a travel waiver before we can provide funding. Additionally, you may need a visa or additional health insurance coverage or immunizations, which takes time to secure.
