CUPC 2026 Student Travel Awards

The CINP is making available two student travel awards to the Canadian Undergraduate Physics Conference (CUPC), being organized this year by the McMaster University, on October 15-18, 2026.
Conference website: https://cupc.cap.ca/

Each award will be for up to $750.00 towards student travel expenses. Faculty or associate level CINP members who are supervising an undergraduate enrolled at a Canadian university on a nuclear physics research topic are asked to apply for the travel award on behalf of their student. The application package should consist of:

  • copy of the student's submitted abstract to the CUPC.
  • 2 page CV including the student's research experience, physics grades from the most recent 2 years of study, and career goals.

CUPC abstract submissions are already open at the above website. The CINP support application deadline is Friday September 18. Please make your students aware of this funding opportunity.

While the grant will be awarded before the conference to facilitate travel, the payment will be released only after the conference upon submission of expense documentation.

Inquiries and completed application packages should be sent to:
