Donate The American Musicological Society is pleased to announce that the Society has awarded forty-eight (48) Annual Meeting Travel Grants to AMS members who have little or no financial support for travel to participate in the 2025 AMS-SMT Joint Annual Meeting. The purpose of these grants is to aid non-affiliated scholars and those with institutional appointments but little or no financial support for conference travel, to attend the Society’s annual meeting in person. The Society also awarded two (2) AMS/NYU Travel Grants of $1,500 each to support travel to the AMS Annual Meeting for NYU students. These grants are provided as part of a special agreement with New York University, which hosts the Society’s offices.
Additionally, the Society awarded twelve (12) Supplemental Grants for Students. These grants support current undergraduate and terminal master’s degree students interested in pursuing careers in music studies to attend the annual meeting.
