The basic philosophy of this program is to allow the uninitiated an opportunity to explore the possibilities of data science and computing using IDSC computing resources to advance their research and educational goals.

Eligibility Requirements:  The Program is open to UM Faculty.

The grant includes 90K Service Units (SU) and access to IDSC computational resources for one year. These grants are renewable for one additional year with a second application. The application process includes a one-paragraph discussion of what the researcher intends to do with the SU. Detail on how to gain access to the IDSC computing infrastructure to being using the SU allocation will be included in your award letter. Gaining access to IDSC systems requires the applicant to:

1. Submit an Application for Access to IDSC Resources for Early Career Researchers
2. Register as a User to obtain an IDSC login ID.
