The intention is to further enhance collaboration between US and Finnish research groups and also to boost industrial-academic collaborations. Ph.D. (or other terminal degree) is required.

This award is open to projects in the disciplines of Information and Communication Technologies or Computer Science. There is a special interest in scholars who work in the following specialty areas: Telecommunications, Communications Engineering, Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Components Design, Electronics, Communication Optics and Materials Technology, and Data Science.
