Columbia faculty-level researchers in other disciplinary fields are eligible to submit proposals for projects collaborating with researchers from science, engineering, and/or biomedicine.

Amount:

The RISE competition provides up to $80,000 for one year – with potential for a second year of funding – to enable researchers to produce the preliminary data necessary to obtain follow-on funding from conventional sources.

Description:

Columbia University Research Initiatives in Science and Engineering (RISE) awards seed monies to support innovative, interdisciplinary, high-risk, and potentially high-impact research collaborations that are not ready to receive funding through conventional sources. For more information, please visit the RISE web page.
