SGPE Conference Expenses

What expenses are covered by the SGPE, and how to claim

Staff and PhD students are welcome to claim travel expenses for attending the 2025 SGPE Residential Conference.

MSc students have their travel and accommodation covered by the programme, so are not permitted to claim expenses. Any MSc student choosing to travel or stay separately must cover their own costs.

University of Edinburgh staff and PhD students should submit expense claims through People and Money. PhD students should ensure they do so through their staff account.

Staff and PhD students from other SGPE institutions should complete the form below and return it to the SGPE team along with all receipts.
