Apply for the Nick Ryan Bursuary!

To honour the work of its longstanding chair Nick Ryan, CAA International provides the annual Nick Ryan Bursary. The Nick Ryan Bursary will be chosen from this year’s student paper presenters. The award will go towards the costs of attending next year’s conference in Kraków, up to a maximum of 1,000 Euros.

The winner will be chosen after the conference via an online survey by all CAA members who attended CAA Tübingen. The person with the most votes will be awarded the bursary, subject to their attendance at CAA 2019. If the winning presenter is unable to attend CAA 2019, the award will be given to the second place individual. The CAA Steering Committee reserves the right for a final decision if they feel that the voting system has been misused.

If you wish to apply for the 2018 Nick Ryan Bursary award, are a student, and will present a paper at the CAA conference in Tübingen, please email the Student/Low Income Officer with the following details:

  • Full name, paper title, session and student status.

These nominated student papers will be highlighted in the conference pack and all delegates are encouraged to attend these papers.
