W4A Google Student Awards

We are delighted to announce the W4A Google Student Awards, which will enable two students to attend this year’s W4A in Raleigh, NC, USA.

Thanks to financial support from Google, these Awards will provide financial support towards travel and accommodation, plus free conference registration, to two students conducting postgraduate research in the web accessibility field and who otherwise would be unable to attend W4A.

This award is open to any student in a postgraduate position (part time or full time) at a University or other Higher Education institution, AND who is carrying out research that is directly relevant to the field of web accessibility. We particularly encourage applicants from under-represented parts of the world.

We now invite submissions from interested students - the deadline is Thursday 4th February, midnight Hawaii Standard Time.

Please see the Google Student Awards page for more information including details of the submission procedure.
