SUMMARY:Computational Skills Training for Undergraduates in Molecular Engi
 neering
DESCRIPTION:Kristen Finch, Ryan Beck, Xiaosong Li, Nam Pho, and Xiao Zhu (
 University of Washington)\n\nIn June 2024, the University of Washington’s 
 (UW) Clean Energy Institute and Molecular Engineering and Materials Center
 , in partnership with the UW high-performance computing (HPC) facilitation
  team, prepared complimentary training for a group of 25 Research Experien
 ce for Undergraduates (REU) participants. Workshop participants had comple
 ted zero to four years of post-secondary education and were from 17 univer
 sities across eight states, with 29% currently attending two-year programs
 , and on average, 14 students attended each workshop. The program included
  four targeted introductory workshop offerings, spanning essential skills 
 in computational science and advanced topics. The program's effectiveness 
 was evaluated with a post-workshop survey. The survey showed that some stu
 dents agreed with statements indicating that learning objectives were met,
  but overall scores and open responses indicated areas for improvement. Ou
 r reproducible program addressed a wide range of training and education ne
 eds within computational science, emphasizing practical skills and interdi
 sciplinary applicability.\n\nTag: Distributed Computing, Education, Emergi

 MIT), Lincoln Laboratory); and Nitin Sukhija (Slippery Rock University of 
 Pennsylvania)\n\n
