Attend computing and data support services town hall

Are you looking for computing and data resources to support your research or coursework? Join a town hall from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Thursday, April 10 in 203 Rhatigan Student Center, Lancelot Room where you’ll be introduced computing and data support services that are available locally, regionally and nationally — many of which are free to WSU students, faculty and staff.

These computing and data support services can enable data analysis, simulations, open-source software development and machine learning applications. Updates will also be shared on current initiatives at WSU such as the acquisition of a MATLAB campus-wide license — and participants are invited to provide their input to help shape local computing and data resources together.

Who should attend?

Students, faculty and staff interested in utilizing and shaping our computing and data resources at WSU.

What you’ll learn:

  • Who to contact for computing and data support at WSU.
  • Overview of local computing and data resources.
  • How to access regional computing and data resources at Kansas State University and Oklahoma State University.
  • Introduction to national computing and data resources, including Advanced Cyberinfrastructure Coordination Ecosystem (ACCESS), the Open Science Grid (OSG), National Research Platform (NRP), and National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NIARR)
  • Discussion: Update on Campus Cyberinfrastructure Master Plan (Feedback is welcome!).

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn, collaborate and help shape the future of computing and data services at WSU.
