The new strategic framework of Wake Forest University seeks to build and strengthen signature areas of excellence in research, scholarship, and creative work that cross academic and institutional boundaries. To support this initiative, the High Performance Computing (HPC) Team has developed an Introduction to High Performance Computing undergraduate course that is accessible to students of all levels and of all academic domains. The objective of this course is to build a curriculum that presents HPC as an essential tool for research and scholarship, enables student-faculty collaboration across all disciplines, and promotes student participation in academic research during their undergraduate studies.
