Dedicated and enthusiastic student volunteers (SVs) are crucial for the
organization of a successful conference. Serving as a student volunteer is
also a great chance to meet and interact with scientists from the field of
Virtual Reality.

Volunteering for VR 2025 is also an opportunity to gain academic service
experience—an often-critical component of post graduate work—and valuable
experience for future scientific event organization.

We look forward to receiving your application for IEEE VR 2025!
Benefits

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

   - free registration*
   - hotel accommodation for non-local volunteers when possible (shared
   with one or two other SVs)

* If you are an author, make sure to have one of your co-authors register
and pay a full fee according to your publication.
Expectations

This year, IEEE VR will take place in Saint-Malo, France. You must be
willing to work about *25 to 30 hours* during the conference. Furthermore,
you must be available for SV orientation on Friday, March 7th, 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.
Eligibility

All full-time undergraduate and graduate students interested in Virtual
Reality or related disciplines are eligible. We will consider geographic
distance from the conference as well as diversity in the area of research.

The following additional considerations will influence volunteer selection:

   - An accepted publication/presentation at VR 2025.
   - Good communication skills in English.
   - Previous experience in event organization is desired but not required.
   - The number of volunteers from each region, institution, and research
   group may be balanced to ensure broad participation.
   - Students from underrepresented groups are especially encouraged to
   apply.
