The subsidized reduced student registration fees has been made possible primarily to ensure that all ISGT-ASIA 2017 Student/YP/WIE attendees pay the most economical conference registration fees but at the same time enjoy maximum participation, deriving all benefits of attending this premier Asia-Pacific (IEEE R10) Power System conference. The registration fee structure for the students (shown below) is arrived bearing this in mind.
