The IPA has established a support mechanism for its student members traveling to conferences to present their research: the IPA Student Awards. These Awards may be offered to student members who will present their research at international conferences, symposia and workshops which are (co-)sponsored by the IPA. Unemployed members, members under age 35, or members from low-income-level countries may also apply. The number and amount of IPA Student Awards will be decided separately for each conference, and will depend on such factors as the funds available at the time, the number of students attending the conference, and the costs to students of attending.
