Intro

UWEC students engage in more high-performance, data-driven research now more than ever thanks to a 2021 public-private collaboration agreement with Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

The center houses BOSE and BGSC clusters, managed by trained LTS engineers in coordination with faculty volunteers. This technology allows our students and faculty to solve problems that may take a normal computer millions of years to solve in just a few days.

This project is significant to teaching and learning within mathematics, computer science, physical sciences, social sciences, economics, and business.

Research and HPC
Currently supporting over 20 research projects across seven different departments at UW-Eau Claire, our supercomputing cluster has been able to successfully save our researchers time and effort while making discoveries earlier than previously possible.

Supercomputing in the Classroom
Over 1,000 students use our computing resources in class annually. Whether it was direct integration into their daily coursework, used during a final exam, or a presentation on how high-performance computing is used in their field, this technology has only enhanced the learning experience of our students.

Computing Hardware at UWEC
Available for free to our campus community for any research or classroom computing needs, we have two supercomputing clusters available. Our flagship cluster, BOSE, has 59 nodes with a total of 3,776 CPU cores, while our smaller cluster, BGSC, has 27 nodes with a total of 460 cores.
