Dear IEEE CASS Student Branch Chapter Volunteers,

We are happy to announce the second Call for Proposals of the Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) Outreach Initiative: Student Branch Chapter Activity Support for 2024.

All CASS student branch chapter volunteers can use this opportunity to seek funding to support a broad range of diverse initiatives with high impact. Desired outcomes may include hosting activities for CASS student members, increasing values for our members, and/or engaging more students with CASS.
  
Please note the following requirements before submitting a proposal: 

  1. Required: All initiatives must be held by 31 December 2024 (any awarded funding cannot be transferred to the next year).
  2. Required: Endorsement by the local CASS Chapter
    1. When submitting the proposal, the student branch chapter must work with a nearby CASS chapter to receive the funds, if the local chapter chair endorsement is not included in the submission, the proposal will not be considered.
  3. Required: A project budget will be required for submission, please include all anticipated expenditures in this file.

Project Funding: 

  • The maximum funding amount for each project is $1,000.
  • Each student branch chapter is eligible to receive funding for a maximum of one project per-year.
  • If there is more than one student branch chapter under the same parent chapter/section that applies for funding, the maximum amount that can be funded through the parent chapter/section is $2,000 (not to exceed the $1,000 limit per-SBC event).
    • Ex. If three SBCs under the same parent chapter/section apply for project funding, the maximum cumulative amount for all three projects (if approved) would not exceed $2,000. 

The following events will not be supported by the CASS Student Branch Chapter Activity Support because the CAS Society provides a special program supporting these types of events:

  • Seasonal Schools
  • Industry Forums
  • Distinguished Lecturers
  • Student Travel Grants/Pre-Doctoral Grants

Important Dates:

  • Deadline of Proposals: 15 June 2024
  • Announcement of Results: 26 July 2024

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you need any further information or details.
