Summary
This research grant opportunity is aimed at empowering academic faculty at universities or recognized research institutions in select regions. Award amounts typically fall between twenty‑five thousand and fifty thousand dollars per project, with two grants available in the current cycle. These funds are designed to support innovative research across a broad array of technical areas—from software verification and deployment methodologies to embedded systems, performance profiling, and scalability challenges.
Eligible applicants are primarily full‑time or part‑time academic faculty who will act as principal investigators. The funds are awarded as unrestricted gifts channeled through the host institution, granting flexibility in allocation—for instance, covering researcher salaries, graduate student support, equipment, or incidental research costs.
To apply, candidates submit a concise project summary of no more than two pages (detailing focus areas, methodologies, prior work, and timeline), along with a one‑page draft budget describing how the award would be used. CVs for all key participants and administrative details of the institution are also required. If successful, recipients agree to share updates via written summaries or blog posts over the following year, offering insights into progress and outcomes.
The goal of the opportunity is to foster exploration in areas like program verification, resource optimization, performance analysis, security enhancements, and emerging use cases of advanced kernel‑level features. By supporting targeted academic research, the initiative seeks to strengthen the technical ecosystem, build collaborations, and elevate research capacity within eligible institutions.
This funding is not aimed at nonprofit organizations outside academia, businesses, or individuals working independently—it focuses squarely on faculty‑led academic projects. The emphasis is on generating scholarly advancements that can benefit broader technical communities, with institutions in open cooperation across global regions encouraged to apply.
Organizations and individuals based in New York who are engaged in Higher Education may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
