ACM Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games 2009
Student Stipend Program: $800
Applications Due December 21st
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games (I3D)
is the leading-edge conference for real-time 3D computer graphics and
human interaction. 2009 marks the 23rd year since the first
conference
gathering. Symposium topics include, but are not limited to, 3D
rendering, 3D gaming techniques, interactive modeling, level-of-
detail
methods, real-time lighting and shading algorithms, visibility
computations, impostors and image-based techniques, visualization,
virtual and augmented reality, and interactive techniques and
applications. The conference is to be held February 27-March 1, 2009
at the Radisson Hotel Boston in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
This year we are offering again the Student Stipend Program for
sponsoring students to attend I3D 2009. The program, financed by our
generous corporate sponsors, is open to students worldwide (at the
undergraduate or graduate level, or equivalent) who have not
previously published at I3D. The awarded stipend per individual will
not exceed a total of $800 US dollars and may go to reimburse travel,
hotel, and meals. In addition, awardees would receive free student
registration to the conference and several meals as part of the
conference. Since the program objective is to encourage participation
of students new to I3D and perhaps new to 3D graphics, stipends will
not be given to students who are author or co-author of accepted
papers or those who have published in I3D earlier. Poster presenters
may also apply for a stipend. If there are more qualified applicants
than stipends available, the committee will select with a subset of
awards reserved for women and undergraduates.
To apply for the stipend, please send an application packet to
stipe...@i3dsymposium.org by no later than Sunday December 21st,
11:59PM PST, 2008. The applications will be reviewed by the committee
and the recipients of the stipends will be notified via email on
Monday January 10th, 2009. Your application packet should be a single
PDF file (e.g., print using PDFCreator: http://www.pdfforge.org/products/pdfcreator)
containing the following three parts:
1. Cover page: on a one-page cover sheet, please include: a) Contact
information: your name, mailing address, and an email address; b)
Faculty contact: please include the name and email address of your
advisor or a professor who supports your application to the Student
Stipend Program.
2. Resume: please include an up-to-date resume or CV.
3. Budget: please estimate your expenses, itemized into categories
including travel, hotel, and meals. Students must document all
expenses with receipts in order to get reimbursed. Details about the
budget:
a. Travel: indicate your total travel estimate (e.g., airline ticket,
to/from airport transportation). Only economy class fare will be
reimbursed. If you choose to drive, reimbursement will be based on
mileage as per the ACM rules.
b. Hotel: Up to a total of $450 will be reimbursed for the hotel
accommodation with receipts. If you do not live in the area you may
stay in the conference hotel or a hotel of your choosing (note: the
conference hotel, Radisson Hotel Boston, offers a very competitive
conference room rate). If you are interested in rooming with another
same-gender student stipend awardee, please indicate so in the budget
and we will attempt to match you – this can reduce your budget to
$80/
night for Radisson Hotel Boston.
c. Meals: Up to a total of $100 will be reimbursed with receipts.
Please note that I3D provides breakfast during the three conference
days and dinner on the second conference day (Saturday Feb 28th).
If you have further questions regarding the I3D Student Stipend
Program, please send an email to stipe...@i3dsymposium.org before the
deadline. Also, see the I3D website, http://i3dsymposium.org for more
details about the conference. I look forward to your application and
to seeing you at I3D 2009!
