Toyota Research Institute University Research Program (URP 3.0) for Robotics, Large Behavior Models and Human-Centered AI

Toyota Research Institute's University Research Program is the company's principal channel for funding external academic research, now in its third five-year phase (URP 3.0). Unlike a conventional gift program, URP funds collaborative projects in which a university principal investigator works alongside a TRI co-investigator, and the current phase spans TRI's core research pillars: energy and materials, human-centered AI, human interactive driving, large behavior models, and robotics. URP 3.0 supports over 100 faculty members across partner universities. Recent funded work concentrates heavily on embodied intelligence — for example, a three-year $1.1 million project on expanding large behavior models with whole-body multimodal sensing across embodiments, and multiple awards on AI-driven robot learning and multimodal sensing. Georgia Tech alone received $2.2 million in TRI robotics funding in a recent cycle. Because projects are structured around a TRI co-investigator, entry to the program generally begins with technical contact with the relevant TRI research division rather than an open application portal, and prospective PIs should approach TRI directly to explore alignment.

Individual collaborative projects are typically multi-year and in the low seven figures; a representative recent award is $1,100,000 over three years for a single project. TRI has committed funding across a five-year URP 3.0 phase supporting more than 100 faculty members.Deadline: Check Source
