DescriptionWe present, discuss, and refine best practices on mentoring undergraduate researchers. We define “best” practices as those which 1)encourage student interest in high-performance computing, 2)produce high quality results, and 3)build student interest in the field. While some might cite the breakdown of Dennard scaling as the largest challenge facing the HPC community, scaling parallel computing education is both a more alarming and challenging issue.
The intended audience is graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and researchers who are interested in mentoring undergraduates. The session will comprise a presentation on best practices followed by a discussion of topics of interest to the audience.
