Opportunities

NOAA's Earth Prediction Innovation Center (EPIC) is offering a limited number of travel grants for students and early career scientists to attend the Unifying Innovations in Forecasting Capabilities Workshop 2026. This workshop is a great opportunity to gain conference experience, learn about NOAA's forecasting capabilities and processes, and share UFS modeling research. The theme for this year's workshop is a New Frontier: Optimizing New Technology in a Changing Weather Enterprise.

The travel grant provides funds to cover transportation to and from the workshop, hotel accommodations, and meals. For more information, visit: https://cpaess.ucar.edu/meetings/uifcw-2026. ** Students do not need to submit an abstract or poster to apply for the travel grant, but are encouraged to present at the workshop if interested.

Fill out the UIFCW26 Travel Grant Application! The deadline for submissions is May 1st, 2026.
