Our Mission
What is the SCI Institute?
SCI, (pronounced SKEE) or the Scientiûc Computing and Imaging Institute has
established itself, over the last 3 decades, as an internationally recognized leader in
visualization, high-performance/scientiûc computing, data management and
analytics, and image analysis applied to a broad range of domains. The overarching
research objective is to conduct use-inspired/application-driven research that
translates to new scientiûc computing techniques, tools, and systems.
Alongside our research goal is our mission to use our research to educate students
and staW. The SCI Institute is proud to have graduated, with an education at the
cutting edge of research, over 400 graduate students and postdoctoral fellows (the
Institute has also interned nearly 100 undergraduates). SCI Institute graduates enter
international faculty positions with universities and become innovators with
companies such as Exxon Mobil, nVIDIA, Google, Intel, and Medtronics.
