Pan-European Master’s Program Created to Address Key HPC Industry Dearth of Operational Talent

Hyperion Research studies have revealed that hiring staff with the requisite HPC-related skillsets is becoming the number one roadblock for growth at many HPC sites. Growing the available talent pool for advanced computing and AI-related careers is critical in order to support and drive scientific research and engineering afforded by the powerful innovations occurring in the fields of HPC and AI. EUMaster4HPC, promoted as the first pan-European Master of Science (MSc) program in High Performance Computing (HPC), was created for this purpose. Discussed in-depth at the recent EuroHPC Summit and funded by the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, the MSc program will link academic excellence to the current and future challenges of European businesses, industry, and the public sector in the multidisciplinary field of HPC.
