Funding Opportunity for Canadian Students Attending AMTA 2026

Attention: Canadian post-secondary students !!

Are you interested in attending the 48th Annual Meeting and Symposium of the Antenna Measurement Techniques Association (AMTA), taking place in Austin, Texas from November 1 to 6, 2026

The Canadian Space Agency (CSA) is pleased to offer grants to Canadian postsecondary students to attend AMTA 2026 under their Announcement of Opportunity (AO) to support Canadian Student Participation in Space Conferences and Training Events. Successful applicants will be awarded a grant to cover their accommodations and meal allowances, registration fees, and travel expenses.

To be eligible for a grant under this AO, applicants must meet the following eligibility criteria:

  1. be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident;
  2. be enrolled in a Canadian post-secondary institution at the college, undergraduate, master’s or doctoral levels at the time of the event.

Although not an eligibility requirement, priority may be given to students who have been selected by the organizing committee to give a presentation (oral or poster) during the event. Priority may also be given to applicants from underrepresented populations. The CSA therefore encourages applicants to indicate, on a voluntary basis, if they belong to one or more of the four following groups: women, Indigenous Peoples, persons with disabilities and members of visible minorities.

Instructions on how to submit an application can be found in Section 4 of the AO. Please read these instructions carefully and submit your application to the CSA no later than June 9, 2026 at 1:00 PM (ET).
