The Noyce School of Applied Computing at Cal Poly is excited to announce funding opportunities for the 2024-25 academic year.
This RFP seeks proposals from Cal Poly faculty for projects that align with the school’s mission to promote excellence, ethics and equity in applied computing.
Proposals are invited under two categories: Research and Teaching Innovation. While the RFP is open to all Cal Poly faculty, each project must include at least one faculty member from a Noyce School-affiliated department — computer engineering, computer science and software engineering, electrical engineering, or statistics — serving as either Principal Investigator (PI) or Co-Principal Investigator (Co-PI). All researchers involved in the project must maintain a Cal Poly affiliation for the duration of the project’s performance period. Cross departmental and cross-college collaborations are strongly encouraged.
Due Friday, Dec. 9 on InfoReady.
The total funding available for this cycle is $400,000, with a minimum of $150,000 allocated to Teaching Innovation and up to $250,000 for research. The allocation between tracks is flexible and may be adjusted depending on the quality of proposals received. Individual project budgets may not exceed $40,000.
