NCSI: RUM: Empowering Students in Scientific Computing

Status	Completed
Mentor Name	Ana Gonzalez
Mentor's XSEDE Affiliation	Campus Champion
Mentor Has Been in XSEDE Community	4-5 years
Project Title	RUM: Empowering Students in Scientific Computing
Summary	To allow the participants to acquire and develop the basic skills necessary to effectively participate in UR, specially in STEM domains. The targeted skills are base on the set of competencies identified at HPC University website, and created by faculty and an advisory committee. The project will focus on 3 of the 7 main areas of the HPC University Competencies; these are Simulation and Modeling, Programming and Algorithms, and Parallel Programming.
Job Description	To follow a road map of modules and online materials, at the end of each week, the participants will present a progress report both written and orally and as applicable a demo of the code they have developed/consider/study. Schedue at least one meeting per week, it can be in person or using some kind of web conferencing application, we are planning on using BBB. The participants are expected to communicate/ consult/ask questions in between meetings. Gain experience, running parallel code in different architectures: from laptop to HPC, XSEDE resources
Computational Resources	Online training material, HPC resources, Bridges,Frontera,Stampede2

Student Prerequisites/Conditions/Qualifications	The participants will have bi - weekly meeting , that will allow the mentors to provide guidance and focus to the participants as they advance in covering the assigned modules or materials. Participants will select one of the modules and will make a poster at the end of the internship.
