DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:ABSTRACT: Computational science has become the third path to discovery in science and engineering along with theory and experimentation.  It is central to advancing research and is essential in making U.S. industry competitive in the face of international market competition.  Yet, many universities have not integrated computational science into their curricula.  This workshop will focuses on the challenges of curriculum reform for computational science and the examples, alternative approaches, and existing and emerging resources that can be used to facilitate those changes.  Participants will review competencies and models of computational science programs, learn about the demand for a workforce with computational modeling skills, and available resources and opportunities.  Participants will analyze their current curriculum and expertise and devise a draft plan of action to advance computational science on their own campuses.
