NVIDIA Academic Grant Program - Submit Your Academic Grant Program Proposal

 Submit Your Academic Grant Program Proposal

We are excited to announce that NVIDIA’s Academic Grant Program is calling for research proposals to advance work in three interest areas: Generative AI Training and Model Development, Generative AI Alignment and Inferencing, and Robotics and Edge AI. Submit your research proposals by September 30.

Areas of interest:

• Generative AI Training and Model Development focuses on foundation models for scientific domains and techniques for training, scaling, and customizing, such as distillation, multi-modality, and modularity.
• Generative AI Alignment and Inference focuses on techniques for customizing, enhancing, and operating, such as explainability, reliability, and inference efficiency, as well as multi-model systems and retrieval augmented generation.
• Robotics and Edge AI focuses on robotics, autonomous vehicles, 5G/6G, smart spaces, and federated learning.

The call for proposals (CFPs) for each interest area includes eligibility information, compute resources available to request (incl. DGX Spark, RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell, Jetson Orin Nano, Jetson AGX Orin, and A100 GPU hours), and submission instructions, including a requiredproposal template.

Award decisions expected in December. For more information, please see the FAQs.
