Apply for travel
Apply for travel approval and/or funding to attend a conference. You will also require approval from your Principal Advisor, this needs to be attached to your application.
Once approved, students will need complete the Student Funds Acceptance form.
More details from the Graduate School regarding travel are avaliable here. SMP HDR students are being asked to use the staff process for travel approval (with the caveats outlined in the HDR Travel Site). All questions should be sent to hdr.smp@enquire.uq.edu.au.
More details are available here https://employability.uq.edu.au/global-experiences/student-travel-procedure.
This travel resources page may also be useful.
All HDR students who travel need to lodge a remote request via myUQ.
HDR students who intend to be away from campus for at least a whole research quarter (most commonly in cases of field work) should also ensure they register as remote for their period of travel by submitting a request for approval in advance to the Dean, Graduate School (via my.UQ)
