It focuses on supporting students working in AI, machine learning, autonomous vehicles, computer graphics, robotics, healthcare, high-performance computing and related fields. Awards are up to $60,000 per student.
Since its start in 2002, the Graduate Fellowship Program has awarded over 220 grants worth around $8 million.
Students must have completed at least their first year of Ph.D.-level studies at the time of application.
The application deadline for the 2027-2028 academic year is October 30, 2026. An in-person internship at an NVIDIA research office preceding the fellowship year is mandatory; eligible candidates must be available for the internship in summer 2027.
