What does it mean to be a Fellow?
Fellows are recognized experts in their fields from the wider research community outside of UP. Fellowship is by invitation only. Please contact us if you are interested in becoming a UP ISC Fellow or would like to recommend someone to become a Fellow.
What are the benefits and obligations of UP Intelligent Systems Center Affiliates and Fellows?
Affiliates can apply for research project funding.
Affiliates and Fellows may have their AI, data science, or complex systems projects featured on the UP ISC website for visibility and collaboration opportunities.
They are included in our expertise database and may be invited to consult or collaborate on projects.
They may be asked to review funding proposals or provide technical feedback on UP ISC-funded projects.
Appointments are issued for specific work and come with an honorarium. (For Affiliates, this is in addition to their existing responsibilities in their home CU.)
