This year-long student program will provide opportunities to learn more about high performance computing and the digital resources that XSEDE provides, network with cutting-edge researchers and professional leaders, and belong to a cohort of student peers to establish a community of academic leaders. XSEDE scholars will receive a travel grant to attend the XSEDE13 conference in San Diego (July 22-25, 2013) and will participate in at least six online sessions throughout the year. We will be accepting domestic undergraduate and graduate students only, and those from traditionally underrepresented groups in the computational sciences at research institutions are especially encouraged to apply. Accepted Scholars will also have the option to apply to participate in the program the following year. If you have any questions about the XSEDE Scholars application, email Ruth Kravetz, program manager at
rkravetz@rice.edu. Deadline to apply for this program is April 1, 2013. You will be notified by April 15 if you are accepted as an XSEDE Scholar. To learn more about XSEDE, go to
