In fact, few researchers and engineers possess the knowledge tobenefit from the current computing capabilities. In response to this unheralded demand,a pilot course for exposing engineering students to new technologies and capabilities in thecomputing world has been developed. As a result, not only have student participants becomeHPC savvy, but also the research community as a whole has expressed intense interest inthe continuation and expansion of the initial project. This surge in interest is derived fromthe fact that student participants have been able to solve problems that were

The students who have takenthe materials course during the last two years are in two different groups: one that has had theintegrated curriculum background and one that has had a traditional background.We wanted to examine two different aspects about this new curriculum. The first aspect is whether weare more effectively teaching materials engineering with our new course.
