Support for Event Participation – Students

Graduate students and postdoctoral researchers regularly enrolled in the PPGCR may apply for financial support to participate in academic events. This document by PROPG gives further details about the allocation of resources for this purpose.

How do I request the support?

 To request for financial support with the participation of the Prorectorate for Graduate Studies (PROPG), you must fill in the online form available at http://auxilio.prpg.ufsc.br/, following the instructions provided on the page. If the request is made directly to the program, pay attention to item 2 below.

ATTENTION:

  1. To request support from PROPG, please note the deadline for submitting the online form available at the link above, by clicking on “schedule”.
  2. To request support from the PPGCR, you must send an e-mail directly to the program coordinator, copying it to the program’s office, for prior approval of the amount.

How do I get reimbursed?

Once approved by the PPGCR coordinator and the PROPG, you must complete the support request form and submit it to the Integrated Graduate Office along with a printed copy of the approval e-mail, the original receipts of expenses incurred, the receipt of the registration fee payment and the proof of participation and paper presentation at the event. The original invoices and receipts must be in the name of UFSC or the student, and must be pasted on A4 paper.

In the “Amount” field of the form, the amounts to be funded by the Program and PROPG must be broken down separately, as in this example:

Amount: R$ 400.00 (PPGCR) + R$ 400.00 (PROPG). (EXAMPLE)

If you do not want or have missed the deadline to receive PROPG’s support, you may ignore the online request step by submitting the form and the above mentioned documents directly to the Integrated Graduate Office. The request will be subject to approval by the PPGES coordinator.

Please note that only the total sum of duly proven expenses up to the amount previously approved by PROPG and PPGCR will be reimbursed.
