TAMIDS has several programs dedicated to financially supporting faculty in developing new courses, workshops, and research projects. These programs are designed to enhance AI, data science, and machine learning research at Texas A&M and support community-building between students, faculty, and researchers.
Data Science Course Development Grant
In association with the Texas A&M Center for Teaching Excellence (CTE), the TAMIDS Course Development Grant Program solicits proposals for enhancing data science education at Texas A&M through for-credit courses for graduate and/or undergraduate TAMU students and similar components within summer programs or for broader outreach. This program supports faculty in developing new courses in data science (including artificial intelligence and machine learning within the program scope) or revamping existing courses to include data science components.
Seed Program for AI, Computing, and Data Science (SPAICD)
SPAICD invites proposals from teams of two or more to undertake one- to two-year projects that will expand research and collaboration in data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. This program encourages proposals that enhance novel ideas, foster innovation, initiate new collaborations, and develop initial research results or datasets to support further funding opportunities.
Data Science Workshop Development Grants
TAMIDS solicits proposals for one-day workshops in any area of data science. The Workshop Grants Program aims to support community building, stimulate collaboration, and foster interdisciplinary growth in data science amongst Texas A&M researchers. TAMIDS provides financial and logistical support for accepted workshop proposals.
