Travel
Reimbursement:
Travel claim forms must
be submitted by
February 27, 2006 to
be reimbursed.
To minimize
the cost of travel, use contracted rates whenever possible and check discount
airlines such as Southwest and Jet Blue for fares which may be lower than
contract rate. Please try to make your air reservations as early as possible
to mimimize the cost of travel especially from smaller airports. The maximum
that CSUPERB will reimburse for air travel between contracted cities and car
rentals will be the state contract rate.
[
for information on the contract rates and how to use them.]
Faculty
and Staff: All CSU faculty and
staff are eligible for reimbursement of travel expenses incurred to attend
the symposium. To be reimbursed, in addition to registering, please
follow the reimbursement procedures on the Faculty
Travel Reimbursement Procedures website, .
(You do not need
to apply through the Faculty Travel Grants Program, nor will you need to include
lodging and meals covered during the Symposium).
Students:
A portion of the CSUPERB travel
fund will be set aside to cover round-trip travel for CSU students presenting
posters at the Annual CSUPERB Biotechnology Symposium. As many presenting
student authors as possible will be supported; however, due to budgetary limitations,
no more than two students/poster will be funded this year with a limit of
$150 per
student for travel to the Symposium. There is no limit to the number of posters/lab.
To be reimbursed, please follow the reimbursement procedures on the Student
Travel Reimbursement Procedures website, .
Please pay special attention to the eligibility requirements; in addition
to presenting a poster, each student must
be a CSU employee.
If the student will not be a paid employee during the period of time of the
travel to the symposium (such as teaching/research assistant or work study),
the student may sign up as a voluntary employee
for that time period. The student must
do this prior to the travel by
filling out the appropriate forms at the Personnel Office. This process
may take several days, so plan accordingly. You do not
need to apply through the Student Travel
Grants Program, nor will you need to include lodging and meals covered during
the Symposium.
