Kestrel Student Allocations Open for Application

Oct. 21, 2024

Last year, we launched a new effort to engage more students in computing and to amplify how computing is used for EERE work. Again, this year, we’re inviting students to get involved with Kestrel. Undergraduate and graduate students from any U.S. college or university can apply for time on Kestrel for their EERE mission-related research project. Students have until Nov. 30, 2024, to apply, and EERE decisions on allocations will be made by Jan. 15, 2025. Student time on Kestrel will be granted for FY 2025. 

 Students can apply by following the instructions on the system resource allocations page.

 A few more details:

• Applicant must be a current student at a U.S. college or university and must provide institutional contact information of a faculty member who is advising or supporting their work.
• This opportunity is only for computer time on Kestrel. No other funding is provided.
• Applicant does not have to be a U.S. citizen. We will work with the applications that are approved to process their accounts on Kestrel.
