EPCC HPC Summer School 2023

22 June 2023

This weekend we welcome eight students to our new HPC Summer School.

The EPCC HPC Summer School will introduce participants to high performance computing (HPC) and best practices in software development. The five-week programme will start with ten days of teaching by EPCC staff on the fundamental skills of HPC, followed by a two-day hackathon to put new knowledge into practice. The remaining three weeks will be devoted to individual projects supervised by EPCC staff and PhD students, with project topics including quantum computing and computational fluid dynamics, as well as subjects proposed by participants themselves.

The Summer School’s cohort of students is drawn from undergraduate courses in computing science, software engineering, mathematics, physics, and environmental science at UK universities, with participants ranging from first year to final year students. We look forward to meeting everybody!

The EPCC HPC Summer School has been jointly funded by the Software Sustainability Institute and EPCC, with the ARCHER2 national supercomputing service providing staff time and HPC access.
