Travel bursaries
Teaching Ethics to Bioscience Students: Sustainability and the Environment Cardiff University, 9th December 2009

Travel bursaries are aimed at bioscience teaching or support staff without access to travel/development funds to enable them to engage with Centre events and share and learn from effective practice elsewhere.
The funding will be available to help colleagues attend UK Centre for Bioscience Professional Development Events and Regional Forums.  The maximum value of each bursary will be £150 and there will be up to two bursaries available per event.  The funding is for travel costs only, not for food or accommodation. 
Colleagues are invited to submit an application using the proforma below.  Please note that successful recipients of the bursaries will be asked to write a report on the event for the Centre in addition to presenting their reflections at the end of the event.  
Please note that all applications must be approved by your Head of Department (or equivalent).
Applications can be made for more than one event but preference will be given to those who have not previously received an award.  Applications cannot be made retrospectively. Application deadline for this event is 25th November 2009 and applicants will be informed promptly of the decision.  Successful applicants will be issued with an expenses form and reimbursed for receipted expenditure after the event.
