June 3, 2026 — The EuroHPC Joint Undertaking (EuroHPC JU) has launched EuroIHPCSS, a new project supporting Europe’s continued participation in the International HPC Summer School (IHPCSS).
From 2026 to 2029, the project will coordinate the European contribution to four editions of the school, supporting European students, instructors and mentors while strengthening Europe’s role in international high-performance computing (HPC) education and training. This initiative contributes to EuroHPC JU priorities in advanced digital skills development, exascale readiness and emerging HPC technologies.
Building on more than 15 years of success, the program will facilitate four annual summer schools (2026 to 2029) co-organized with leading international partners from the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Japan, South Africa and the United States. Each year will bring together graduate students and early-career researchers from all over the world for an intensive week of advanced training in high-performance computing (HPC), AI-enabled computing, data-intensive methods and related technologies. The program combines technical lectures, hands-on training on leading HPC systems, mentoring activities and international networking opportunities..
Through this initiative, EuroHPC JU will support the annual participation of up to 40 early-career researchers from participating states, while ensuring strong European representation among tutors, mentors and governance structures. The selection process will promote broad geographical participation and diversity across Europe while maintaining an emphasis on excellence. The program will offer a balanced curriculum combining theoretical foundations with hands-on training on leading HPC systems, delivered by internationally recognized experts in the field.
The 2026 summer school will be held between July 12-17, in Perth, Australia and will contribute to strengthening Europe’s global leadership in HPC education, promoting diversity and inclusion, and enhancing the global visibility of European HPC expertise. Structured mentoring activities and networking opportunities will support participants’ career development and foster long-term alumni engagement and international collaboration across the global HPC community.
EuroHPC JU funding of up to EUR 1 000 000.00 will support the European contribution to the organization of the summer schools, including participant support, mentoring, coordination, evaluation activities and travel and subsistence for selected European participants and contributors.
A strong emphasis will be placed on continuous improvement and knowledge sharing. Annual evaluation activities and annual European reports will support refinement of future editions, while an “IHPCSS Implementation Handbook” will document organizational experience and best practices to support long-term sustainability beyond 2029.
The project will work in close coordination with key European initiatives, EVITA and other training actions supported by EuroHPC JU, ensuring broad dissemination of results and synergies across the European HPC ecosystem. Dedicated communication strategies, including websites and social media campaigns, will further enhance the program’s visibility and outreach.
