The IPA has established a support mechanism for its student members participating in IPA-sponsored conferences to present their research – the IPA Student Awards. Three such awards are available to student members of the IPA attending the Speech Prosody 2016 conference. These awards will take the form of a reimbursement of the student registration fee.<\/p>\n
Applications for these awards are now invited from student IPA members who are presenting their work at Speech Prosody 2016 (as either a paper or a poster). In accordance with the IPA scheme, applications are also invited from unemployed members of the IPA, members under 35, and members from low-income-level countries. (Read about IPA grants here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n Applications should be sent to the IPA Secretary at [ secretary @ internationalphoneticassociation.org ] by midnight (AoE) *6th May*. Please enter “Speech Prosody 2016 Student Award Application” in the subject line.<\/p>\n Applications should consist of a front sheet itemising the name\/address\/affiliation\/IPA membership number of the applicant, together with the 4pp paper which has been accepted by the conference:<\/p>\n Applications will be considered by a small selection committee set up by the IPA for this particular purpose, and the outcomes will be announced by 23rd May.<\/p>\n Award recipients should pay their registration as normal and the awardees would be reimbursed once they have provided the IPA Treasurer with a receipt for their registration fee and a photo of them at the conference, which the IPA will post to its Facebook site following the conference.<\/p>\n\n
