Outreach and Education

Community outreach takes many forms at CISL, which is uniquely positioned to teach the public about computational science and provide learning opportunities for all who are interested in high-performance computing (HPC) and cyberinfrastructure. Our educational and training efforts are designed to complement and supplement programs at universities and other centers.

Internships

Learning opportunities for interns make high-performance computing accessible and fun, and they have a long-term, positive impact on the quality and diversity of the workforce.

CISL Visitor Program

CISL regards collaboration with university faculty, practitioners in high-performance computing, new researchers, and students as central to its mission to support the atmospheric and related sciences.
