XSEDE Seeking Partner Institutions to Offer Course in Applications of Parallel Computing

XSEDE project and the University of California, Berkeley are offering an online course on parallel computing for graduate students and advanced undergraduates. Additionally, they are seeking other university partners that are interested in offering the course for credit to their students. The course includes online video lectures, and autograded quizzes and homework assignments with access to free accounts on the NSF-supported XSEDE supercomputers. Last year the course included participants from 14 different institutions with students from a variety of backgrounds that successfully completed the course.  Participating institutions will need to provide a local instructor that will be responsible for advising the local students and officially assigning grades. Students will complete the online course quizzes and exercises as part of their grade and can then undertake a final group project supervised by the local instructor.
