Faculty and post-doc researchers from Singapore and MIT are invited to submit proposals for consideration and funding by the project steering committee. Researchers participating on GAMBIT-funded projects will be expected to submit articles, whitepapers, journal submissions, and conference presentations annually to encapsulate and present each year of work within an academic context. Research projects will also have to participate in the GAMBIT summer program for each year of funding.

Topics of scientific, engineering, arts and humanities research in the Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab may include:

• Gamers – Player cultures and communities. Behavior, habits, and values.
• Aesthetics – Concepts of expression and representation to engage the senses.
• Mechanics – Rule design, constraints, system dynamics, and human nature.
• Business – Best practices for risk and project management, industry trends.
• Innovation – Novel and hybrid genres of gameplay and demographic appeal.
• Technology – Software and hardware interfaces, computation, and rendering.
