This $492,652 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Office of Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) will enable Montana State University (MSU) to acquire and deploy a state-of-the-art high-performance computing (HPC) cluster to support computational research and education across the four-campus MSU system. The HPC resources, including advanced machine learning-optimized GPUs paired with the latest CPUs, will significantly improve the speed and capabilities of HPC-enabled simulations, computational modeling, data analysis, and machine learning. This will accelerate research productivity and capacity, enhance educational curricula, and promote economic development in emerging technology areas such as quantum science, energy security, infrastructure security, semiconductor research, and environmental/climate forecasting. The project will also expand low-barrier access to HPC through new classes, trainings, and hands-on assistance to develop HPC skills among a broader set of students and researchers, with a focus on increasing opportunities for underrepresented populations.
