Computation will become an essential element of every branch of science and technology over the next decade, driven by the vast amount of experimental data requiring analysis, and the need for increasingly realistic simulations of ever more complex systems.

Computational science is now being perceived as a core skill that is crucial to the construction of theories and models at a new conceptual level and therefore to the progress of many scientific agendas.

There is a high demand for computer-literate science graduates across all areas of industry (significantly so in life sciences, technology and engineering) but the availability of suitably-trained candidates is low.

The Centre addresses this problem by providing advanced training on contemporary topics of high performance scientific computing and its applications.
