Student Travel Grant

To promote participation and diversity of students, ACM SIGMM and ACM MMSys 2025 organising committee will offer travel grants for students.


SIGMM has centralised support for standard student travel for in-person participation. Any student member of SIGMM is eligible to apply (join SIGMM here), however, the students who are the first author of an accepted paper (in any track/workshop) are particularly encouraged to apply. The grants can cover any travel expenses such as airfare/shuttle, hotel, and meals.


In addition to being a SIGMM member, the applicant must be enrolled in a university at the time of the application submission.

Selection Criteria

Students being the primary authors of an accepted paper in the main conference or workshops will be given preference in the selection process.


Students without papers accepted for publication at ACM MMSys and related workshops but involved in research closely related to the topics of ACM MMSys and related workshops can also be considered.


Female and minority students' applications are especially encouraged.

Application Procedure

Applications will be reviewed right after the deadline and the applicants will be notified in due time.

Application deadline: February 21st, 2025 February 28th, 2025
