High School and College Students are Encouraged to Participate in the XSEDE12 Student Program

XSEDE12, the first conference of XSEDE, the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery
Environment, will be held July 16-19, 2012, at the InterContinental hotel in downtown
Chicago. XSEDE provides high-performance computational resources and services for
scientists and researchers around the world.

If you are a high school, undergraduate, or graduate student and are interested or
engaged in computational research, we encourage you to participate in the XSEDE12
Student Program. By participating, you can:

 - Meet computational and domain scientists from around the country who use
high-performance systems in their research.
 - Compete in a student poster contest that shows how your research demonstrates the
value computational science adds to scientific discovery.
 - Talk to XSEDE and OSG staff and users through our Student Mentor Program.
 - Attend introductory tutorials tailored for students new to computational science
or more advanced tutorials designed to help you get the most out of XSEDE resources.
 - Present your research which uses XSEDE or OSG resources by submitting a paper to
our Technical Program.

Pending final approval, the National Science Foundation may provide limited funding
to support student travel, lodging, and/or registration costs for attending XSEDE12.
