The goal of FacultyHack is to equip educators with the tools and resources needed to incorporate HPC concepts into their courses, thereby ensuring students obtain the skills necessary for careers in HPC-related fields.
The FacultyHack model accomplishes this with faculty-mentor pairings in which experienced HPC mentors guide faculty members in updating their curricula. This further cultivates collaboration between educators and HPC experts and ensures future curricula meets the needs of a more diverse and inclusive HPC community.
