UNIVERSE-HPC will define a training curriculum framework – spanning from undergraduate to continuing professional development level – for Research Software Engineers (RSEs) specialising in high performance computing (HPC). The project leverages the significant training expertise of the SRSG and partners from Oxford and Imperial to adapt, develop, and pilot the curriculum and course materials, which will underpin a professional training programme. Southampton and Imperial have also developed a highly popular series of training events, called Byte-sized RSE, with over 500 learners trained on a wide range of practical RSE topics and practices. The format has already been franchised and adopted by external training providers.
