| Project Description | To create a pool of Research Computing advisors (helpdesk) who would be able to respond to researchers and quickly point them to the right compute resources or match them with people with proper scientific/computing expertise. |
| Project Deliverables | Research Advisors will have a basic set of skills which the Mentor can leverage to match with research in need of assistance. Mentor from WPI would James Kingsley (PHD Candidate in Physics, HPC Specialist). |
| Project Deliverables | |
| Student Research Computing Facilitator Profile | Graduate students/Post Docs would be Preferred. Any area of Computational Science and Engineering. Programming skills (Fortran, C/C++,etc.), Applications (Matlab, R, Ansys, Fluent,etc) |
