Traveling for conferences, workshops etc.

Travel application

Before traveling you must submit a travel application (use mit-au login) and get approval before you make any reservations or payments.

Remember that you can only get expenses reimbursed that are included in the travel application. As a general rule, extra costs for luggage exceeding what's included in the flight are not covered by the department. Exemption for this might happen if the luggage is work related, however, only with prior approval via the travel application. More information about what can be covered by the PhD pool.


Daily allowance

PhD students at CS can get the daily allowance when traveling. You register for the daily allowance when settling your travel expenses in RejsUd. Remember that all free meals (i.e. breakfast at the hotel, lunch at a workshop or a conference dinner) must be deducted from the daily allowance.

Find daily allowance rates here.
