9351140 Runquist To improve laboratory instruction in the sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Physics), Hamline University will add high-end workstations with capacity for graphics to support on- going curriculum reform across the sciences. These systems will be introduced into both introductory and advanced laboratory courses and undergraduate research programs of all four science departments. Hamline University has initiated a three-stage plan for introducing high performance computing (HPC) into the undergraduate science curriculum. During Stage 1, which is underway and financed entirely by Hamline University, eight Sun workstations and one server were purchased and connected to Internet, a science faculty training program was initiated, and HPC teaching modules are being developed. During Stage 2, hardware and software holdings will be expanded, teaching modules will be introduced, tested, refined and expanded, cooperative faculty and student HPC-supported research programs with remote institutions will be developed, an HPC-focused science curriculum will be designed, and course content and teaching methodologies will be further modified to incorporate HPC. This proposal requests funds to support Stage 2. During Stage 3, a new science building with an HPC-focused curriculum as its architectural theme will be designed and constructed, and HPC use will be expanded into social science fields. Experiences gained from this program will enable Hamline to serve as a regional HPC/science curriculum resource center.

小行星9351140 为了改善科学（生物、化学、数学和物理）的实验室教学，哈姆林大学将增加具有图形能力的高端工作站，以支持正在进行的跨科学课程改革。这些系统将被引入到所有四个科学系的入门和高级实验室课程和本科研究计划。 Hamline大学已经启动了一个三阶段计划，将高性能计算（HPC）引入本科科学课程。在第一阶段，这是正在进行和完全由Hamline大学资助，八个Sun工作站和一个服务器购买和连接到互联网，科学教师培训计划启动，HPC教学模块正在开发。在第二阶段，硬件和软件持有量将扩大，教学模块将被引入，测试，完善和扩大，合作教师和学生HPC支持的研究计划与远程机构将开发，HPC为重点的科学课程将被设计，课程内容和教学方法将进一步修改，以纳入HPC。该提案要求资金支持第二阶段。在第三阶段，将设计和建造一座新的科学建筑，以HPC为重点的课程作为其建筑主题，HPC的使用将扩展到社会科学领域。从该计划中获得的经验将使Hamline成为区域HPC/科学课程资源中心。
