The John von Neumann Institute for Computing (NIC) and the
Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) work hardly
to introduce scientific computing to a wide public.
This is done especially by organizing workshops, conferences, seminars,
summer schools and guest student programmes, or by taking part in scientific
exhibitons at conferences. The topic focus is lain on
theoretical physics and theoretical chemistry. Proceedings of workshops and
summer schools and reports on projects and research aktivities of the
NIC are published in an own publication series.

Since 2000 NIC/JSC organizes a
guest students programme during the summer holidays
to introduce scientific computing to young talents.
The participants, students of natural sciences und engineering sciences,
mathematics and computer science, take part at the research and
development projects of JSC and of the NIC Research Group.
During their work they are tutored each by a scientist.

The NIC regularly takes part with a Research Exhibit at the
Supercomputing Conference,
the world-wide leading conference on scientific high performance computing,
which is annually organized by the big National Labs in the USA.
Since several years the JSC organizes a joint exhibit of the German
High Performance Computer Centres on the
International Supercomputer Conference,
which attracts experts and management people of the big German scientific computer
centres and computer vendors.

An important base and addition to the education in scientific computing
is the education and training of
mathematical-technical software developers (MaTSE) at JSC. These
IT specialists work as application developers, system administrators,
network experts, or database developers etc.. The theoretical education in mathematics,
computer science, and programming languages is done at JSC; the practical
experiences are made in IT-groups at the institutes of the research center Jülich
or even in other companies.
Since 1998 the trainees may also enrol for a degree
in Technomathematics at the Fachhochschule Aachen/Jülich, and
receive after four further semesters the diploma as a Mathematician.
