TEP- Call for Proposals Deadline

2021 RAS Technical Education Programs

Each year, the IEEE Robotics and Automation Society offers financial support for three Technical
Education Programs (RAS-TEP), also known as "Summer/Winter Schools." In efforts to bring RAS closer to its membership, three programs are held each year: one in the Americas, one in
Europe/MiddleEast/Africa, and one in Asia/Pacific Rim.

The RAS-TEP program is jointly run by the RAS Member Activities Board (MAB) and the RAS Technical Activities Board (TAB). These Boards will review proposals and select the TEP programs each year. The program sponsors up to three schools per year around the world. Each of the three Technical Education Programs (Summer/Winter Schools) will receive up to USD$25,000.00 in funding from RAS. Funding should be used to reduce the event cost for RAS Student Members, and to assist in securing high quality instructors.

The review of TEP proposals is based on assessments from two different viewpoints, the first one with
respect to the general structure, including organizational matters and budget, and the second one with
respect to the technical content. RAS Technical Committees (one or more TCs) must endorse all
submitted proposals. Current TCs are listed at: www.ieee-ras.org/technical-committees.
