-- STUDENT SUPPORT --
---------------------------------------------------------------------
A limited number of travel grants is available for students who
would not otherwise have resources to attend RTA 2012, and whose
attendance would benefit both the applicant and the conference.
The number of grants and the per-grant amount will be established on
a case by case basis, depending on the applicant's need and the
total amount of funds available for the program. Applicants should
note that a grant is limited, and that costs in excess of the grant
will not be reimbursed.
Grants will be awarded based on the grant committee's assessment of
the applicant's genuine financial need, the potential benefit to the
applicant's education, research, and career, and the potential
benefit to the conference. Among those applicants who genuinely
could not attend the conference without a grant, the evaluating
committee gives priority to (co-)authors of accepted papers.
Applicants should download and fill the application form and send it
by ** April 16 ** by email to
rta2012-grant at trs.cm.is.nagoya-u.ac.jp
Applicants should have their supervisor send a recommendation email
to the same address and by the same deadline. This letter should
describe the student's work, the benefit to that work of attending
the conference, and an assessment of the student's financial need.
Funds will be provided after the conference, upon submission of
receipts.
* Schedule
- Monday April 16: Deadline for applications and recommendation
letters

-- HOST CITY: NAGOYA, JAPAN --
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Nagoya is located at the center of Honshu (the main island of
Japan) with a population of 2.24 million. Thanks to the rich water
resources of the Kisogawa, Nagaragawa and Ibigawa Rivers, the
fertile land which enjoy the blessings of the rivers, and other
advantages including good transportation links, its people have
lived affluent lives since early days.
Nagoya has a long history and is the birthplace of three notable
feudal lords, Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu.
Also in Nagoya, traditional industries like ceramics and textiles,
and today's key industries like automobiles, aviation and machine
tools have developed, and Nagoya has an important role in Japan's
industrial society.
Furthermore, the Central Japan International Airport (Centrair)
opened in February 2005, and in March 2005, Expo 2005 Aichi Japan
started. Centrair has flight connections with Frankfurt, Helsinki,
Detroit, Tokyo Narita, etc. Today, Nagoya grabs attention and
keeps on developing as a Japanese international city.
