HKUST and Cornell University are offering faculty research seed grant awards called HKUST-Cornell Global Strategic Collaboration Awards (GSCA) for 2024-25, which is also part of HKUST’s Global Knowledge Network. The HKUST-Cornell Global Strategic Collaboration Awards (GSCA) are intended to provide HKUST and Cornell faculty teams with initial financial support for collaborative research explorations. These grants have the potential to create new or expanded research partnerships, develop cutting-edge scholarship to create academic and societal impact, and attract external funding.

These international research exploration seed grants will help support early-stage research projects or capacity-building efforts to establish and sustain long-term collaborations and secure extramural funding.

Each grant requires at least one PI from HKUST and one PI from Cornell. Additional collaborators are welcome but not required.
Grants are open to any HKUST-eligible Principal Investigator and Cornell-eligible Principal Investigator from any academic discipline.
In this round, no specific research themes are required.
