Thammasat University ACM SIGHPC Student Chapter
Greetings from the Thammasat University ACM SIGHPC Student Chapter! We are excited to announce the launch of our official web platform.
The TU ACM SIGHPC Student Chapter is a student-led chapter affiliated with the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on High Performance Computing (ACM SIGHPC). It serves as a platform for students to explore, learn, and engage with high-performance computing (HPC)—the technology that enables supercomputers to solve complex problems at incredible speed.
During the Thammasat University Lampang Campus Open House on October 31, the Digital Technology and Innovation program showcased its curriculum to visiting high-school students. Alongside this, the TU ACM SIGHPC Student Chapter introduced its HPC-IGNITE initiative—providing introductory knowledge of supercomputers and high-performance computing in a fun and accessible way.
To spark curiosity, the chapter also hosted an interactive Q&A session with prizes for high-school visitors. This engaging activity boosted awareness of HPC and successfully fostered interest in supercomputing among prospective students.
The founder and faculty sponsor of the ACM HPC Student Chapter in Thailand, Assistant Professor Dr. Worawan Diaz Carballo (Marurngsith), is a computer scientist and HPC educator at Thammasat University. Her work focuses on building HPC capacity, promoting education, and empowering local innovation through HPC initiatives.
Stay tuned for our upcoming events and sessions! We look forward to advancing the future of computing together at Thammasat University. Follow us for more updates!
