- The Public Interest Technology University Network is a consortium of universities and foundations who collaborate to develop technology in the public interest. The members established the organization in March 2019. The group currently has 43 member universities from across the U.S. including Arizona State University, City University of New York, Harvard University, Howard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Stanford University and University of California, Berkeley. The organization seeks to address challenges between industry and society. Member institutions are committed to bringing students and educators from multiple disciplines together to solve the toughest challenges our country and world face, by building the nascent field of public interest technology and growing a new generation of civic-minded technologists. Through the development of curricula, research agendas, and experiential learning programs in the public interest technology space, these institutions are using innovative tactics with the aim to develop graduates with multiple fluencies at the intersection of technology and policy. In October 2019 the organization awarded US$3 million in grants to 27 institutions. The organization has since awarded two more rounds of funding through the PIT University Network Challenge. In 2020 28 institutions were awarded grants totaling $4.4 million, and in November 2021 $3.61 million was awarded to 24 grantees. Grants are exclusively available via application to members of PIT-UN. (en)
