Courses
LA-SiGMA provides an education plan that includes new materials science graduate courses delivered across the State. A core set of interinstitutional graduate level courses (three in the first year, six more in subsequent years) in computational science, multiscale modeling methods, advanced experimental techniques, and other topics are being developed and broadcast throughout the State using synchronous HD video as well as asynchronous methods. These courses will be integrated into existing and new graduate curricula on each campus, providing graduate students a transformative educational experience in materials science, who who will enter the workforce as highlyskilled, well-trained computational materials scientists.
