The process for applying for iCORE funding is unique to each grant program. More information can be found on grant program descriptions.

Researchers from outside Alberta are encouraged to establish and work with contacts at an Alberta university to develop a Chair and associated research team proposal (CPE grants).

Alberta researchers are encouraged to apply for ICE grants and are also encouraged to apply for recruiting funding (ISPR grants) to work with international researchers to develop a Chair and associated research team proposal (CPE grants).

Industry sponsors may either contact the iCORE secretariat to develop a Chair proposal and subsequently target researchers, or work with researchers directly (ICE grants).

Graduate students are encouraged to contact professors directly at Alberta universities with whom they would like to work. Once a graduate position is confirmed in computing science or electrical and computer engineering, iCORE funding will be awarded to eligible students who apply for iCORE scholarships. However, the application document must be submitted prior to commencement of studies to initiate the award (GSF program).
