The world of seamless virtual and physical realities is coming sooner than we think, and higher education leaders need to start thinking today about what they need to do to get prepared. https://accntu.re/3cbikF9
Institutions need to take a careful look at their people and the talent they are educating to be able to effectively capture the promise of these four trends
Research faculty: Turn research priorities and talent toward these emerging technologies
Staff: Talk about skills needed to leverage these technologies: instructional and experience design in the metaverse, bot designers, what else?
Students: Look at programs and curriculum to make sure students are coming out with skills to succeed in this new world across industries

The team’s goal is to develop an all-inclusive system that will serve researchers across a wide range of scholarly disciplines and computer skills, according to Honggao Liu, executive director of Texas A&M’s High Performance Research Computing (HPRC) and the project’s principal investigator.
These disciplines include artificial intelligence and machine learning, cybersecurity, health population informatics, genomics and bioinformatics, human and agricultural life sciences, oil-and-gas simulations, new-materials design, climate modeling, molecular dynamics, quantum-computing architectures, imaging, smart and connected societies, geosciences and quantum chemistry.
“The ACES system will support the national research community through coordination systems supported by the NSF,” Liu said. “In this way, the ACES system will provide invaluable support to cutting-edge projects across a broad spectrum of research disciplines in the nation. ACES will also leverage HPRC’s efforts that promote science and broaden participation in computing at the K-12, collegiate and professional levels to have a transformative impact nationally by focusing on training, education and outreach.”
