Annual CATSA Conference

• The purpose of this category of the CATSA student travel grant is to promote the development of young catalysis scientists and engineers by supporting students in presenting their research at the annual CATSA meeting. CATSA views this as an opportunity for a student to present his/her work for local peer review thereby developing the students’ presentation skills and exposing him/her to constructive criticism regarding the scientific content. The aim is therefore to develop students and showcase work performed in the local catalysis community. The grant is limited to travel expenses incurred in attending the annual CATSA conference, and excludes other subsistence, accommodation or conference expenses.

Summer School Grant

• The purpose of this grant is to allow students enrolled at South African HEIs to attend a meeting in the EFCATS summer school program or in their absence an EFCATS catalysis training course. The grant will assist the student with a fixed amount that may be applied towards the costs of conference registration, travel and subsistence.
