The world is awash with data, and giving our students the tools to work with that data in a meaningful way is vital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The $693,923 grant from the NSF creates the Computational Infusion for 大象传媒 Undergraduate Science and Engineering, composed of 大象传媒 Western, Southeast 大象传媒 State University, Truman State University and Webster University along with the 大象传媒 Research and Education Network (MOREnet) and the University of 大象传媒 System Research Support Services. The consortium will install a high-performance computing cluster that will allow users to process large quantities of data and perform highly complex calculations much faster than a typical desktop or laptop computer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/news\/2023\/10\/04\/nsf-grant-gives-students-at-missouri-western-and-other-universities-access-to-high-performance-computing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click here to read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:66.666666666667% !important;margin-top : 0px;margin-bottom : 20px;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {padding-top : 0px !important;padding-right : 0px !important;margin-right : 2.88%;padding-bottom : 0px !important;padding-left : 0px !important;margin-left : 2.88%;}@media only screen and (max-width:1024px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}@media only screen and (max-width:640px) {.fusion-body .fusion-builder-column-1{width:100% !important;order : 0;}.fusion-builder-column-1 > .fusion-column-wrapper {margin-right : 1.92%;margin-left : 1.92%;}}<\/style><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.fusion-body .fusion-flex-container.fusion-builder-row-1{ padding-top : 0px;margin-top : 0px;padding-right : 30px;padding-bottom : 0px;margin-bottom : 0px;padding-left : 30px;}<\/style><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":1463,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[67,65,36],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1462"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1462"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1462\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1466,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1462\/revisions\/1466"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1463"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1462"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.missouriwestern.edu\/points-of-pride\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
