Computational Infusion for Undergraduate Science and Engineering (CIMUSE)
A MOREnet-led initiative has been awarded an extension to a National Science Foundation (NSF) CC* Area 5 planning grant to develop the next proposal. Information on CC* Program can be found on the NSF website.
As part of the initial planning grant, we hosted a workshop at the University of Missouri in Columbia. The faculty from attending PUIs learned about accessing and developing these research facilities and worked together to identify science drivers and potential projects which could be funded through an NSF grant. As a result of the collaboration, four PUIs – Missouri Western State University (MWSU), Southeast Missouri State University (SEMO), Truman State University, and Webster University in cooperation with MOREnet and the University of Missouri System Research Support Services (RSS) have formed a statewide partnership, the Computational Infusion for Missouri Undergraduate Science and Engineering (CIMUSE) and applied for a grant to develop high-performance computing capacity for Missouri PIUs.
After the development of the first grant, there were still funds remaining in the planning grant, so we are again pulling together interested parties to explore additional opportunities for synergy.
NSF Grant Planning Workshop
Join us Aug. 1-2 in Columbia for a group interest discussion on potential Missouri educational needs. Travel grants to cover 100 percent of travel expenses available.
Attendees will participate in group interest discussions on potential Missouri educational needs and priorities, as well as share personal and professional experiences on the need for high performance computing as it relates to research and undergraduate education.
Learn more about the event before you commit!
Join us for a virtual discussion to talk about the project, the goal of the August CIMUSE workshop and the results of the initial work of this grant. This is a chance to connect with faculty and researchers from across the state with interests in, or maybe just curiosity about, computational science. Both Zoom sessions have the same agenda.
