Each year student volunteers (SVs) provide essential support to ICGI. The conference depends on student volunteers to staff the various conference events and special purpose conference rooms. Their enthusiastic participation enhances the conference experience for all the attendees.

Student Volunteers benefit by observing first-hand the latest advances in the computer graphics and interactions research fields, hearing and meeting researchers from around the world, and building a network of research colleagues.

The Student Volunteer Program is looking for reliable, hardworking and enthusiastic student volunteers to help us create a great experience and a premier conference.

Benefits

Besides the stimulating experience, SVs will receive a package of benefits that includes:

• Free registration (equivalent to a Student Participant).
• Complimentary lunch, coffee breaks and social event for the two days of the conference

Expectations

This year, ICGI will take place in Sintra, Portugal. You must be willing to work about 10 to 15 hours during the conference. Furthermore, you must be available for SV orientation on Wednesday, November 12th, before the conference begins. Your SV duties will include: working the registration desk on-site, helping with the setup of the conference environment, providing assistance to speakers and attendees, and more. If you cannot commit yourself to this time frame and this amount of work, then please do not take away a slot from another willing student.
