We’re continuing a tradition of supporting graduate research in GPU computing with this year’s NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program.
The NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program awards $25,000 to Ph.D. students involved in GPU computing research. The aim is to support graduate students doing outstanding GPU-based work by offering a financial incentive and technical support.
“NVIDIA has a longstanding commitment to supporting outstanding academic research, because we know it fuels innovation,” said Bill Dally chief scientist and senior vice president of research. “We’ve invested millions of dollars in support of ground-breaking research in science, engineering and medicine. We’re delighted to support the work of these exceptional graduate students, whose efforts will help define the future of computing.”
Our Graduate Fellowship award winners were selected from more than a hundred applicants in 21 countries. Their projects involve a variety of technical challenges, including computer architecture, programming models, character animation, computer graphics, and computational methods for simulating chemical events.
The NVIDIA Graduate Fellowship Program is open to applicants worldwide. Eligibility criteria include completion of the first year of Ph.D. level studies in the areas of computer science, computer engineering, system architecture, electrical engineering or a related area. In addition, the student must be a member of an active research team.
