Experience at NCCS
"My time at NCCS was most valuable in showing me how Earth science is done at the cutting edge of computing. It was inspiring to see the drive and dedication with which everyone I interacted with treated their work. I felt I was regarded, not so much as a novice or temporary learner, but as a peer. What's more, I learned how to work as part of a team through the scientific process, a reminder of just how how integral close cooperation is in the sciences, especially among people of unique backgrounds and with diverse strengths. I would recommend to anyone interested and skilled in climate modeling, high-performance computing, and beyond to look no further. Thank you NCCS!"
