The Institute for Digital Research and Education (IDRE) is soliciting proposals for Summer/Fall quarter workshops and seminars focused on topics that impact digitally-enabled research at UCLA. Events could address research challenges, emerging methodologies, software or tools, computational questions, or advances in hardware and infrastructure. The program’s goals are to address critical research issues, bring together UCLA faculty, and establish new collaborations that can lead to new funding opportunities or campus investments. Priority will be given to topics of significant impact to multiple research areas across campus. Co-sponsored proposals are welcome.
Award Amount and Details
- The workshop award will support up to $5,000 to cover expenses, and the seminar award will support up to $1,000 to cover costs.
- Funds may be used to cover expenses, including but not limited to: travel and accommodations for visiting speakers/participants, catering, and event costs. Please also note that the funds could be used for small honorariums rather than travel if the proposal is for a virtual workshop/seminar.
- It is anticipated that at least one of each type of award will be funded.
