The Managing Board of ECCOMAS has decided to make available 37 scholarships for European Citizens which are PhD students at the time of the registration, particularly from Eastern European countries. Non European Citizens are eligible if they come from a country with an ECCOMAS-affiliated association (e.g. Israel).

The scholarships will consists of :

• Free registration to the Congress
• A bonus of up 500 € to support travel and accommodation expenses.

The outstanding costs have to be sustained by the individual participant. A number of low cost accommodations have been negotiated by the Congress organization and made available on the web site for reservation.
