The Center for the Development and Application of Internet of Things Technologies (CDAIT) is pleased to announce a call for proposals for the inaugural Student IoT Innovation Capacity Building Challenge. An important source of innovative ideas, particularly in technology-related fields, comes from university settings: students, faculty, and researchers. In the effort to advance these activities in the area of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and applications, CDAIT seeks to stimulate rapid response innovative/exploratory research or projects in the field of IoT and associated domains.
We especially seek proposals from the social sciences, humanities, and multidisciplinary teams and proposals that address the effects of IoT on underserved populations or people with disabilities. Projects that have a broader social impact are also welcome. We expect to provide up to $3,000 in research support (materials and supplies) to as many as eight (8) Challenge teams. The top three completed projects also will receive scholarship awards to be divided among team members as payments through the financial aid office.
