                STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPS  | 
               
               
                    We are delighted to announce a student scholarship program.   The purpose of this program is to provide financial support for  students with accepted papers at AAMAS-09, to enable them to   travel to the conference.      
                   
                To be eligible you must:     
                 
                * be registered as a full-time student at a higher education     institute (e.g. a University);   
                * be explicitly listed as an author of a paper accepted for    AAMAS-09 (full, extended abstract, or workshop)     
                 
                Our emphasis is on helping students who are first authors of full  papers accepted for the main conference. Though lower in priority,  to the extent that funds allow, we also hope to potentially  provide support for student authors of extended abstracts, or of  workshop papers.    
                We anticipate different levels of funding based on geographic location   (distance to conference venue, underrepresented regions), level of   participation, etc. We particuarly encourage student scholarship  applications from underrepresented regions.     
                 
                To apply  complete the Student Scholarship Application  Form. You will need to provide your  participation details for AAMAS-09 as well as a pdf with a  (scanned) letter certifying that you are registered as a  full time student. This letter should carry the letterhead of your  institution, and must be signed by your supervisor/thesis  advisor.                Submit your application (the completed application form and the   scanned letter) by email. The deadline for  submitting AAMAS-09 student scholarship applications is  
                 
                February 27, 2009     
                 
                We will contact all applicants to let them know the outcome as  soon as possible.
