Nov. 16, 2023 — The team organizing next year’s SC24 to be held in Atlanta, November 17-22, 2024, is opening applications for Lead Student Volunteers (LSVs) on December 4, 2023. All former students are strongly encouraged to apply.

This opportunity allows former student volunteers to foster professional relationships by working alongside the committee members within their assigned area. Additionally, it provides a fantastic pathway for students who are interested in becoming a full committee member once they are finished with their studies or just to learn how to organize events to become leaders in the research community. The program also offers both leadership training and mentorship opportunities.

LSVs are valued leaders in student programs and work directly with committee members on a specific part of the conference. LSVs are experienced student volunteers who have demonstrated a passion for SC and desire to make a greater volunteer contribution to the field. As a member of the Lead Student Volunteer program, the students become junior committee members, providing them with the exposure and experience of being a committee member at SC.

“If you have passion in your soul and love what you do in HPC, you are definitely a good fit for SC,” said former volunteer Anja Gerbes. “Being able to work as part of a team is a very important skill. Volunteering helps you see the whole picture, and makes you happy to be part of this amazing community!”

Elevate your experience: Applications for the Lead Student Volunteer program open December 4, 2023.  The deadline is February 15, 2024. For more information, visit the SC24 Lead Student Volunteers page here.
