On Thursday July 25th, 2019, CCS hosted a field trip of middle schoolers from the Phillip and Patricia Frost Museum of Science. Dr. Michael Mannino, CCS Director of Programs, and Joel Zysman, CCS Director of Advanced Computing and his team led the tour. The young “scientists-in-training” visited the data center in the Ungar building, and the Visualization laboratory, where they learned about: the basics of computational science, the importance of supercomputing, and the 2D- and 3D-visualization capabilities and techniques used by scientists and researchers at CCS. They had a fun and excellent educational experience, and left curious and inspired!
