High Speed Science Network

Science Network Connections are 10 Gigabits per second (Gbps) fiber lines connecting on-campus computing resources to the 100Gbps Science Network (ScienceNet). These include individual laboratory, departmental storage and server facilities, and the HPC clusters. ScienceNet runs across Central Campus, the Medical School and West Campus. It is specifically designed for large data transfer and provides a direct connection to the Internet and Internet2 through a Science DMZ.

Science Research Software Core

The FAS Science Research Software Core was implemented by the Provost in recognition of the increasing demand for cutting edge software for use in analytical and experimental research, design and analysis. Such software can streamline research and enhance productivity in the lab, but can also be expensive to purchase and maintain. The mission of the SRSC is to provide investigators with affordable access to widely used and specialized software for applications common to the physical sciences and engineering.
