Applications open November 29, 2019, and are due January 27, 2020

Who can apply: Graduate students and postdoctoral scholars from institutions in Canada, Europe, Japan and the United States, especially if you use advanced computing in your research. Students from underrepresented groups in computing are highly encouraged to apply (e.g., women, racial/ethnic minorities, persons with disabilities, etc.).

Who are the teachers: Leading computational scientists and HPC technologists from the U.S., Japan, Europe and Canada will teach classes and provide mentoring to attendees.

What will you learn: Topics include:

• HPC challenges by discipline
• HPC programming proficiencies
• Performance analysis & profiling
• Scientific visualization
• Big Data Analytics
• Mentoring
• Networking
• Machine Learning
• Canadian, EU, Japanese and U.S. HPC-infrastructures

Preferred qualifications, but not required:

• Familiarity with HPC, not necessarily an HPC expert, but rather a scholar who could benefit from including advanced computing tools and methods into their existing computational work
• A graduate student with a strong research plan or a postdoctoral fellow in the early stages of their research careers
• Utilize parallel programming at least on monthly basis, more frequently preferred
• A science or engineering background, however, applicants from other disciplines are welcome, provided your research activities include computational work.

Cost: School fees, meals, and housing are covered for all accepted applicants, also intercontinental flight costs.
