GRIPex program announced

Submitted by Erin Pennington

As a follow-up program to the larger Game-Changing Research Initiation Program, or GRIP, that was launched in 2022, the Office of the Vice President for Research is launching a new round of funding, this time focused on artificial intelligence, or AI. 

GRIPex: AI in the Disciplines is a GRIP initiative for "ex"ploratory research that currently seeks to build interest and capacity in the game-changing domain of AI. The focus of this program is on exploratory research with goals as follows: 

  • To build interest, capacity and excitement for research related to the application of AI across multiple domains and disciplines.
  • To create synergy groups of faculty members who have a shared interest in AI.
  • To lay the groundwork for competitive proposal development, faculty hiring and additional investments in AI-related activities at K-State.

A total of $1 million in grant funding is available for this program.

Read the full call for proposals.

Proposals are due Nov. 1, and awards will be announced in January 2024.
