9987598威廉Hase -韦恩州立大学IGERT：在高性能计算应用跨学科培训这综合研究生教育和研究培训（IGERT）奖支持教育和研究的高性能计算多学科研究生培训计划的建立。该项目将整合我们新的科学计算研究所正在进行的跨学科研究工作到一个合作培训计划。 该计划将建立在现有的高性能计算相关的项目，许多与工业合作，在科学计算领域，在韦恩州立大学不断增长的研究实力发展协调一致的推力。 在计算机密集型，数据密集型和实时计算的积极计划将形成核心研究，这将是一个新的跨学科硕士/博士的标志。课程。 课程将包括一系列综合性的动手（讲座和实验室）课程和由大学和工业界参与者开发的科学计算研讨会。 研究生论文培训将基于团队合作，学生单独研究主要跨学科项目的不同组成部分。 在以下战略重要领域使用高性能计算的计划被设想为：（i）医学，遗传学和生物化学，（ii）化学，物理学和材料科学，以及（iii）汽车和航空航天系统。 这项研究教育计划得到了工业界的积极支持，特别是福特、IBM、SGI、SUN和CFD Research，他们将提供大量资源作为启动该计划的匹配，并将参加讲座、研究培训和项目的监督/评估。 韦恩州立大学将承诺超过232万美元的资源，以支持这一计划。 为了确保这一培训计划的成功，并与科学计算的许多机会竞争，韦恩州立大学正在补充研究生奖学金，给予23,266美元/年的总奖学金。 有了这笔津贴和培训计划的实力，我们将能够招募优秀的学生。IGERT是一个全国性的计划，旨在满足教育博士的挑战。科学家和工程师与多学科背景和技术，专业和个人技能所需的未来的职业需求。 该计划旨在通过建立新的，创新的研究生教育和培训模式，促进研究生教育的文化变革，为超越传统学科界限的合作研究创造肥沃的环境。在该计划的第三年，该奖项将颁发给19个机构，这些机构的计划涵盖了NSF支持的所有科学和工程领域。这个特殊奖项的知识焦点位于计算机和信息科学与工程，数学和物理科学，工程，生物科学以及教育和人力资源的董事会。

9987598William Hase - Wayne State UniversityIGERT: Interdisciplinary Traineeship in High Performance Computing ApplicationsThis Integrative Graduate Education and Research Training (IGERT) award supports the establishment of a multidisciplinary graduate training program of education and research in high performance computing. This project will integrate ongoing interdisciplinary research efforts in our new Institute for Scientific Computing into a cooperative traineeship program. The program will build upon existing high-performance computing related projects, many with industrial collaboration, to develop a concerted thrust in the area of scientific computing, a growing research strength at Wayne State University. Active programs in computer intensive, data intensive, and real-time computing will form the core research that will be the hallmark of a new interdisciplinary Masters/Ph.D. curriculum. The curriculum will consist of an integrated series of hands-on (lecture and laboratory) courses and seminars on scientific computing developed by university and industrial participants. Graduate thesis training will be based on teaming where students work individually on different components of a major interdisciplinary project. Programs using high performance computing in the following strategically important areas are envisioned: (i) Medicine, Genetics, and Biochemistry, (ii) Chemistry, Physics, and Materials Science, and (iii) Automotive and Aerospace Systems. This research-educational initiative has the active support of industry, particularly Ford, IBM, SGI, SUN, and CFD Research, who will provide substantial resources as a match to initiate this program and who will participate in lectures, research training, and oversight/assessment of the project. Wayne State University will commit more than $2,320,000 in resources to support this program. To ensure the success of this training program and to be competitive with the many opportunities in scientific computing, Wayne State University is supplementing the graduate stipends to give a total stipend of $23,266/year. With this stipend and the strength of the training program, we will be able to recruit outstanding students.IGERT is an NSF-wide program intended to meet the challenges of educating Ph.D. scientists and engineers with the multidisciplinary backgrounds and the technical, professional, and personal skills needed for the career demands of the future. The program is intended to catalyze a cultural change in graduate education by establishing new, innovative models for graduate education and training in a fertile environment for collaborative research that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries. In the third year of the program, awards are being made to nineteen institutions for programs that collectively span all areas of science and engineering supported by NSF. The intellectual foci of this specific award reside in the Directorates for Computer and Information Science and Engineering, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, Engineering, Biological Sciences, and Education and Human Resources.
