Description

Amazon invites research proposals on AI agents, security, automated reasoning and cryptography, among other tracks. Awards are research gifts to eligible institutions rather than personal student scholarships. Each track defines its own research scope and eligibility conditions. Assess the fit between the proposed work and the chosen track before investing time in a full submission. The institutional nature of the award matters for who can receive it. This call should not be approached as a general-purpose scholarship for individual students. Eligibility: Principal investigators affiliated with eligible universities or organisations; track-specific rules apply. Funding: Unrestricted research gifts to the institution; amounts vary by research track. Application: Choose the research track before writing the proposal. Check institutional eligibility and that track’s specific requirements in the Amazon Science call. Schedule: 4 November 2026
