About IUB:
IUB is one of only 30 U.S. public research universities in the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU). It’s also one of the public ivy universities（公立常春藤）and one of the “Big10” universities. Forty graduate programs and four schools at IU are ranked among the top 25 in the country in the U.S. News & World Report's 2016 rankings. ARWU ranks IUB 46~58 nationally in 2020. U.S. News ranks IUB #76 in the Best Global Universities in 2020. IUB’s Computer Systems area is ranked #48 in CSRankings in 2022.

IU has a very long tradition in HPC research and infrastructure. IUB is one of the few universities that have supercomputers in campus. For example, NSF awarded IUB $10 million to build the Jetstream2 supercomputer (https://jetstream-cloud.org/), and IUB has built the Big Red 200 AI supercomputer for its 200th anniversary. IU has a booth every year at ACM/IEEE Supercomputing (SC) Conference. Many big names in HPC field have worked at or graduate from IUB like Geoffrey Fox, Andrew Lumsdaine, Torsten Hoefler, Thomas Sterling, etc.






The Luddy School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering has built a new 125,000-square foot building, including an innovation center, a series of teamwork rooms, meeting spaces, classrooms, faculty offices, and a large lecture hall. Moreover, the Luddy School just completed the construction of the $35M Luddy Center for Artificial Intelligence, a 58,000-square-foot facility, which will serve as the hub for multidisciplinary research in advanced AI and machine-learning applications.
