Supercomputers and undergraduates? Is it common for an undergraduate to run its thesis (evolutionary genomics) in a supercomputer? In my country, few supercomputers exist, but I'm not sure how it is for bachelors in the US or Europe. I am writing my application to graduate school abroad and I want to know if it is a remarkable point I can use as hook to begin my statement.
If by "supercomputer" you mean a "computer cluster," there are lots of people with such experience in the US and Europe, and many universities even have their own. (My university, for instance, operates its own 25,000-core cluster.) If you mean "supercomputer" a machine like one on the Top 500, that may be worth mentioning. However, indicating that you have experience running calculations in high-performance computing environments is certainly worthwhile to mention if it's relevant for your graduate program.
