ANSYS FOR TEACHING
Invitation for Curriculum Proposals
As part of our ongoing mission to support the teaching of engineering, science, and design, Ansys invites educators of accredited educational institutions to submit proposals to create innovative curricula or the evolution of existing courses in undergraduate engineering departments' Ansys simulation tools. The courses should combine Ansys technologies with proven teaching and assessment methods, such as active learning techniques and project-based learning, which improve and enhance education and prepare students to make an impact on day one of their careers.
Selected projects will receive a grant and relevant technical guidance for creating or evolving an existing course or set of courses. An individual course will receive up to $5,000, and for a series of courses within a university department(s), additional funds will be considered up to $25,000.
For this active invitation, Ansys will award up to $125,000. Although any proposal focused on undergraduate courses will be considered, for this round, proposals that include the incorporation of Ansys tools into multiple courses as part of a department wide or cross departmental course strategy will be prioritized.
Key Dates:
- Proposal submissions are now open
- Proposal submissions deadline: March 30, 2025
- Notification of recipients: Ansys will make award announcements no later than May 2, 2025
- Start of projects: From August 2025 (or earlier)
- Incorporation of curriculum: 2025-2026 academic year, no later than one year from start of project
