Education with billions of potential users worldwide is a major target. Anemerging service called HPC-as-a-Service (HPCaaS) targets Science, Technology, Engineering,and Math (STEM) users. In this paper we discuss the use of HPCaaS platform in STEMeducation. We argue that such a service can significantly alleviate a major obstacle in teachingparallel programming for the STEM students.Cloud computing

In senior design courses, assigning real-world design projects is imperative to prepare the students for the job they may be performingthe following year. In the basic engineering science courses, however, finding design projectsthat engage the students, that demonstrate the real-world applications of the basic engineeringscience, and that do not seem like “busy-work” to the students requires imagination.
