HPC and Data in Astrophysics 2024: Free Graduate-level Course for Australian HDR Students and ECRs
The 4th Collaborative Graduate Education (CGE) course HPC and Data in Astrophysics for 2024 is now open for registration. This 12-week long course, from Tue 3rd of Sep to Thu 28th of Nov, is to be delivered as a live online interactive event by an array of internationally renowned professors and scientists from 17 institutions.
The purposefully designed curriculum includes essential and diverse aspects of computational astrophysics, such as numerical simulations; HPCD techniques; statistical modelling and inference; AI and machine learning in astrophysics; mining, modelling, and Inference; industry showcases, and hands on tutorials, and aims to support HDR students, ECRs and beyond in Australia who are working on large or complex astrophysics problems and requiring HPC and data tools to maximize their research impact.
Two webinar deliveries each week encompass altogether 18 topical lectures and 6 hands-on tutorials. With guidance and support from independent Organizing Committee members including Prof Chris Power (UWA), A/Prof Yuan-Sen Ting (ANU/Ohio State), Prof Martin White (Adelaide) and Yvonne Wong (UNSW), Intersect Education functions as the main facilitator in planning, co-organising and coordinating this collaboratively taught, interactive venture.
