The Short Stays Program (SSP) from LACCIR has as its main goal to support the completion of Post Graduate (PhD or research oriented MSc.) dissertations in Computer Science and related fields, developed in the Latin American and Caribbean region by partially financing useful research stays in other research centers in the region. In particular, SSP provides funds to cover students’ travel expenses to visit a research center in a different country of her/his university doing relevant research work.

LACCIR is proud to announce the names of the SSP2009 awarded students.
