Lecture on HPC, AI and Career Opportunities
At the Faculty of Commerce of the University of Economics in Bratislava (EUBA), a guest lecture was held on 10 March 2026 focusing on current trends in high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), and career opportunities in the digital environment.
The guest speaker was Lucia Malíčková, Project Coordinator at the National Supercomputing Centre and the National Competence Centre for High-Performance Computing (HPC). In her presentation titled “HPC/AI – Flexibility and the Ability to Learn”, she highlighted the importance of adaptability, continuous learning, and openness to new technologies in a rapidly evolving digital environment.
During the lecture, she also presented her professional journey and shared her experience working on international projects. Students learned more about how supercomputers and artificial intelligence are used in practice, what projects are being implemented in Slovakia and within European cooperation, as well as about career opportunities in the field of digital technologies.
The event offered students a practical perspective on why it is beneficial to start building their own career path already during their studies, get involved in projects, and develop digital skills that are increasingly important in today’s job market.
The lecture aimed to connect the academic environment with industry experts and to encourage students’ interest in modern technologies, innovation, and career opportunities in the field of HPC and artificial intelligence.

Artificial Intelligence and a Supercomputer as a New Weapon Against Environmental Disasters 26 Mar - Scientists from Nitra, Slovakia are teaching machines to predict industrial failures before they can cause damage. Thanks to collaboration with the European supercomputer LUMI, they have developed a digital “guardian” capable of detecting pipeline leaks or manufacturing faults with high accuracy—helping protect both the environment and companies’ budgets.
