SimOps AI for Graduates
This training course is a free online tutorial designed for recent graduates and engineering students preparing to enter their careers in AI-driven High-Performance Computing (HPC) and Engineering Simulations. This training introduces you to the challenges young engineers face in today’s high-performance computing and engineering simulation job markets, now that AI starts playing a dominant role, even for entry-level jobs. It also highlights how Simulation Operations (SimOps) can provide you with a structured pathway into your HPC and simulation careers.
This tutorial is designed to build your awareness of both opportunities and risks, equipping you with the knowledge needed to navigate an AI-powered workforce and to develop the mindset of an AI-augmented engineer. It also serves as an entry step for further learning in the engineering simulation and HPC infrastructure fields, such as the SimOps Fundamentals Certification.
“Everybody’s jobs will be different as a result of AI. Some jobs will be obsolete, but many jobs will be created. The one thing we know for certain is that if you’re not using AI, you’re going to lose your job to someone who uses AI.” — Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia
The scope of this training is to help you:
-
Understand how HPC powers AI and simulations across industries and research.
-
Learn the key aspects of AI and the main types of AI you’ll encounter in your career.
-
Recognize how AI is reshaping the job market and what it means for entry-level engineers.
-
Explore how SimOps lowers barriers to entry and creates new career pathways in HPC.
-
Develop strategies for critical thinking and responsible AI adoption in engineering practice.
Duration: 1 - 2 hours
Certification: Complete this free tutorial and proceed with the 15 multiple choice questions to demonstrate your readiness for AI-powered careers in HPC and engineering simulation, confirmed by a SimOps Certificate.
