of North Carolina and is the first
award in the state for the category
of Network Infrastructure.
Approximately $358,000 of the award
will be managed directly by UNCG,
while approximately $142,000 will be
managed by NC A&T as a “sub-award.”

The
GCRN will create a
multi-institutional network
supporting research activities
through a clean, low-latency,
high-speed internet connection. This
will give researchers access to
dedicated, high performance
computing resources while helping to
eliminate issues posed by using
existing networks that also carry
administrative, entertainment (i.e.
movie streaming, gaming), and other
non-scientific data. The GCRN will
enable fast transfers of the
enormous amount of data that fuels
innovative research. This will
significantly increase the
fundamental research capacity in
disciplines such as chemistry, nano-engineering,
nano-, computer-, and data science.
“This award represents a significant
step in our shared journey to help
advance the capabilities and
reputation of our universities and
our region as world-class leaders in
research,” said UNCG Chancellor
Franklin D. Gilliam, Jr. “A state of
the art network will help fuel
innovation, spark economic growth in
our region, and enable us to deliver
meaningful scientific breakthroughs.
It will also further deepen the
existing partnership between UNCG
and N.C. A&T, helping to connect our
outstanding scientists with
collaborators around the world.”
Added N.C. A&T Chancellor Harold L.
Martin Sr., “This is an exciting
opportunity for researchers at N.C.
A&T, UNCG and their collaborators
from around the globe. My
expectation is that this new data
network will assist our researchers
in strengthening existing
partnerships and creating new
partnerships that will produce
innovative solutions to some of the
world’s persistent challenges.”
UNCG’s Jeff Whitworth, associate
vice chancellor and chief
infrastructure architect, served as
the Principal Investigator (PI) for
this grant, with co-principal
Investigators Shyam Aravamudhan,
associate professor, N.C. A&T; Geoff
Starnes, associate vice chancellor
of information technology and deputy
chief information officer, N.C. A&T;

North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State
University has created three new Centers of
Excellence in
cybersecurity,
advanced manufacturing, and
entrepreneurship and innovation. See

Excellence; Interim Directors Named.
The centers will
provide exemplary leadership in research,
academic programming and community outreach,
consistent with the university’s land-grant
mission. The interim directors will
establish interdisciplinary faculty advisory
committees and external advisory committees,
initiate discussions with business and industry
leaders and plans for sustaining the
centers for the long term. They will also assist
with hiring of permanent directors and initiate
strategic planning. emphasis added
