Master in High Performance Computing Now Accepting Applications

ICTP and SISSA are pleased to announce that they are now accepting 
applications for the inaugural year of the Master in High Performance 
Computing (MHPC) programme, which will start in September 2014 in Trieste.

The MHPC is an innovative degree programme that prepares students for 
exciting careers in the fast-growing field of high performance computing 
(HPC). Set in the stimulating research environment of ICTP and SISSA, 
the programme will combine lectures with hands-on and applied projects 
to prepare future HPC specialists for academia and industry.

MHPC coursework will be driven by challenging scientific and technical 
problems that require an HPC approach. Lectures will be provided by ICTP 
and SISSA staff and highly recognized international experts. Both 
institutes have long histories and experience in developing and applying 
scientific and research computation models.

Students who successfully complete the program will be able to address 
problems requiring advanced computational techniques in multiple 
domains, and communicate HPC technological issues in all scientific and 
industrial environments.

Details about tuition fees, fellowships, admissions requirements and 
application instructions are available on the *MHPC website* 
<http://www.mhpc.it> (www.MHPC.it).

Application deadline is Monday, 19 May 2014.
