Our Education ProgramsInformation technology (IT)-enabled systems,
tools, and services are profoundly affecting the practice of science and
engineering research and education. Integrated to form “cyberinfrastructure”
(CI), they enable individuals, groups, and organizations to work together in new
ways, revolutionizing what they can do, how they do it, and who can participate.
San Diego Supercomputer Center (SDSC) is committed to sharing CI and its
exciting promises with the next generation of scientists, engineers, and
citizens.

Discover Data Education Portal
The Discover Data portal provides a way for K-12 teachers and undergraduate
professors to incorporate scientific data into their curricula. Our process is
to select data from existing online freely available scientific data archives,
some of which may be a challenge for students to use without assistance, and
build a series of lessons around them designed to guide K-12 and undergraduate
students through beginning, intermediate, and advanced scientific tools.

Education Portal
SDSC’s education department continues to work with scientists, educators, and
colleagues around the country to expand, enhance, and disseminate CI educational
offerings for students and teachers of all ages.
