UT Faculty Travel Grant

UT Faculty Travel Grant Application (not serviced by DSES/CREEES)

Eligible faculty must complete the UT Faculty Travel Grant online application to receive up to $1,200 per academic year (guaranteed) for travel expenses to present original papers at scholarly and professional meetings. This includes reimbursement for all allowable travel-related expenses (such as lodging, meals, transportation and registration, which are non-taxable reimbursements), and can also be used to cover extra childcare expenses incurred due to the travel (a taxable reimbursement). An approved “Request for Travel Authorization,” or RTA, must be on file prior to travel. These funds may be used for foreign or domestic travel.

Eligibility: All tenured and tenure-track faculty members (Professor, Associate Professor, Assistant Professor and Instructor) and emeritus faculty of the College of Liberal Arts are eligible. Senior Lecturers and Distinguished Senior Lecturers with at least five years of service at UT Austin are also eligible. Visiting, adjunct, research and clinical faculty, specialists, lecturers, classified personnel, and other non-teaching staff are ineligible.
