Next TRIPS flight to Washington, D.C. is May 1
For several years, the university has provided researchers with an opportunity to fly to Washington, D.C. on a KU airplane at no charge. The program is called TRIPS (Travel of Research Investigators to Potential Sponsors). These are one-day, in-and-out trips. The only requirement is that researchers must have scheduled meetings with one or more agency program officers to discuss the possibility of funding for a future sponsored research project.
The next TRIPS flight is Thurs., May 1. The KU plane leaves the Lawrence airport at 6 a.m. Central time and arrives at Reagan National by 10 a.m. Eastern time. The return flight leaves around 5 p.m. Eastern time and arrives in Lawrence by 7:30 p.m. Central time. Researchers are responsible for arranging meetings and transportation while in Washington.
Space on TRIPS flights is limited. For more information, go to the TRIPS website. Reservations can be made by contacting Linda Crawford at the Office of Research and Graduate Studies, 864-7298, lcrawfor@ku.edu.
