[TYPES/announce] POPL 2026 Call for Student Volunteers

[Ningning Xie]

*Call for Student Volunteers*
Sign up to be a Student Volunteer and help us make POPL 2026 a unique
experience for all attendants!

POPL 2026 is pleased to offer a number of opportunities for student
volunteers, who are vital to the efficient operation and continued success
of the conference each year. The student volunteer program is a chance for
students from around the world to participate in the conferences whilst
assisting us in preparing and running the event.

The Student Volunteer Program helps more students attend the POPL
conference by covering registration to the conferences, tutorials,
workshops, and all associated events (but not travel or lodging expenses).
In exchange for a fixed number of work hours (around 18) helping with the
conference organization, you will be able to closely interact with
researchers, mentors, and other students at POPL 2026. We are looking
forward to seeing you in the SV team!

*Eligibility*
Applicants can be undergraduate, Master’s, Ph.D. full- or part-time
students, of computer science or related fields, with or without previous
experience as volunteers. Everyone is encouraged to apply!

*Duration*
Applicants must be available for at least four (4) full days between the
11th and 17th of January 2026, and will be expected to provide at least 18
hours of volunteering work in that time. Volunteers will also be expected
to be available for some amount of pre-conference discussion and training
if necessary.

*Compensation*
Every student volunteer will receive:

- A complimentary conference registration, offering access to all open
sessions (i.e., parallel paper presentations, demonstrations, and
workshops) and conference proceedings.
- Free lunches and refreshments during breaks.
- Student volunteer garments.

Please note that Student Volunteers are responsible for their own travel
and accommodation arrangements. However, Student Volunteers can apply for
extra funding from SIGPLAN PAC funding or PLMW when eligible.

You can send questions about student volunteering to Aurèle Barrière (
aurele.barriere at epfl.ch) and Stephen Mell (sm1 at cis.upenn.edu).
