Graduate Student Professional Development Travel

Graduate Students at FSU excel in the classroom and on campus, but one of the keys to graduate student success is providing professional development opportunities to enhance the classroom experience and build strong professional networks. The Graduate School is dedicated to helping our students succeed in this effort, but we need your help. Join us as we raise funds to support our students as they expand their knowledge and networks by giving to the Graduate Student Success and Support fund.

Your gift will help FSU’s graduate students unlock opportunities beyond the classroom by fueling the creation of Professional Development Travel Awards, enabling students to attend conferences, build networks, and grow as leaders in their fields.

The Professional Development Travel Awards will provide vital funding for graduate students to attend professional conferences, workshops, and other degree and career-advancing events within the United States. Helping students offset costs such as registration, travel, and accommodations removes barriers and helps them succeed academically while preparing them for the future.

Any unused funds may be used in accordance with the established fund guidelines.
