Following the tradition of previous years, we will offer student participation
support provided by SIGCHI to attend the IUI Conference. This support is in
the form of a small stipend to cover the registration fee and partially cover
the costs of travel and living expenses while attending the conference. The
students will be reimbursed for their expenses after the conference. All
students who get travel grants from SIGCHI must send us a paragraph about
their experience and a headshot before they will be reimbursed. You must be
a member of SIGCHI before you apply ($19 dues).

The objective of IUI's student support is to encourage students interested in
subjects related to Intelligent User Interfaces to become active members of
the IUI community. To apply, the student should be actively enrolled as a
student in an academic institution. Priority will be given to students who are
first authors of accepted papers and to participants in the doctoral
consortium. Recipients of the stipend are also expected to help the
conference organization as student volunteers. The level of support will be
determined by the availability of funds and the number of eligible
applications.

The application should include:
1.	Full name
2.	Email address
3.	The school you are attending, your major, and the country in which
the school resides
4.	If you will present at the conference, please provide the title of the
submission and its type (e.g., research paper, student consortium, demo).
Please note if you have submitted but have not found out if your submission
has been accepted
5.	A short statement describing your research interests and how you
wish to benefit from attending this conference
6.	The location you are flying from and the cost for your airfare, as
determined by the availability of low-cost economy fares for travel to the
conference. Please describe any other expenses you expect to accrue, but do
not include registration and housing costs, as they are similar for all students
7.	A letter of recommendation from your thesis or doctoral advisor (or
supervising faculty member) sent separately by email to the Student
Consortium Co-Chairs. If you are also applying to the Student Consortium,
one appropriately worded recommendation letter can be used for both
applications, or you may submit a slightly different letter for each application
8.	You must be a member of SIGCHI before you apply

The application
The SSTG application has two parts: an application form that is submitted by
the student; and a letter of support from the student's advisor that the
student will attach to his or her application.
