DETAILS:

If you could access thousands, maybe millions, of hours of computing, how would it transform your research? What discoveries
would you make?

We are looking for qualified students to attend the 2013 Open Science Grid (OSG) User School, where they will learn how to
use high-throughput computing to harness vast amounts of computing power for research.

Using lectures, discussions, roleplays, and lots of hands-on work with OSG experts in high-throughput computing, students will learn
how HTC systems work, how to run and manage many jobs and huge datasets to implement a full scientific computing workflow, and
where to turn for help and more info.

Worried about costs? Successful applicants will get financial support to attend the OSG School (June 24-27) at the beautiful
University of Wisconsin in Madison.

Plus, some students will receive financial support to attend
XSEDE13 (July 22-25) in San Diego, California.

Ideal candidates are science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) graduate students whose research demands
large-scale computing. Also, advanced undergraduates are encouraged to apply.

Others may apply too; funding is tight this year, but we consider all great candidates!

IMPORTANT DATES

Application Period: March 4-29 2013
OSG User School: June 24-27 2013
XSEDE13 Conference: July 22-25 2013
