Graphcore launches Academic Programme
Graphcore has launched its Academic Programme, extending the company’s commitment to supporting universities and other institutions exploring new applications and approaches to artificial intelligence.
The Graphcore Academic Programme is aimed at researchers, principal investigators, professors, Masters and PhD students, and PostDocs around the world who wish to use Graphcore systems in their research or teaching.
Participants will receive free access to IPU compute systems, comprising 16x Mk1 GC2 IPUs on 8x C2 PCIe cards, inside a Dell DSS8440 server.
Other benefits of the programme include support and regular check-ins from Graphcore’s in-house researchers and engineers. Graphcore may also offer support with grant applications and funding proposals.
