Through the Houston PREP Program, the Center for Computational Science
and Advanced Distributed Simulation (CCSDS) is doing its part to respond
to the dwindling number of students entering careers in Engineering, Mathematics,
and Science, which is occurring on a national scale. Notably, the expanding
economically and socially disadvantaged population groups also are not
choosing these career options. Houston PREP is designed to encourage students
from these groups into these careers. Moving forward into the next century
without such efforts, our nation is risking its leadership role in the
high technology society that we have developed.
Programs such as Houston PREP are making a difference. The people and
organizations that support it are the backbone of this development. We
extend our sincerest thanks to all of you.
