The National Science Foundation’s Innovation Corps (NSF I-Corps) program at UAlbany uses experiential education to help researchers gain valuable insight into the impact their research could have on the world if commercialized.

The program helps researchers of diverse backgrounds explore bringing their scientific and engineering discoveries to the marketplace as commercial ventures or licensed intellectual property that can spur economic growth and societal impact.

UAlbany’s NSF I-Corps program can help you:

• Explore the market need for your research
• Define the broader impacts of your work
• Strengthen your next grant application’s commercialization plan

Attend a monthly info session to learn more about I-Corps @ UAlbany. Program Director Kelly Reardon will provide an overview of the program and answer questions. Cohort applications are accepted on a rolling basis, with cohorts scheduled 2-3 times a year.

The University at Albany is proud to be a part of the New York Region I-Corps Hub.
