ACM SIGGRAPH Symposium on Interactive 3D Graphics and Games 2008
$1000 Student Stipend Program
Deadline Dec. 21, 2007
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. 2008 marks the 22nd 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 15-17, 2008 on the campus of
Electronic Arts (EA) in Redwood City, California. Founded in 1982, EA
is one of the leading interactive entertainment software companies
developing, publishing, and distributing interactive software
worldwide for videogame systems, personal computers, cellular handsets
and the Internet.
This year we are offering a Student Stipend Program for sponsoring
students to attend I3D 2008. The program, financed by our generous
corporate sponsors and by the ACM, is open to students worldwide (at
the undergraduate or graduate level, or equivalent) who have not
previously attended I3D. The awarded stipend per individual will not
exceed $1000 US dollars and may go to reimburse travel, meal, and
hotel. Free student registration to the conference and most meals are
included with the stipend. Stipends will not be given to students who
are the author or co-author of accepted papers or posters. The size of
the requested stipend will not affect your chance of being selected.
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
i3dst...@gmail.com by no later than Friday December 21st, 11:59PM
EST, 2007. The applications will be reviewed by committee and the
recipients of the stipends will be notified via email on Monday
January 7th, 2008. 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, meals, and hotel. Students must document all

this transportation for free from SFO)
b. Hotel: if you do not live in the area you may stay in the
conference hotel (Sofitel San Francisco Bay) or a hotel of your
