About us
Welcome to the Texas Advanced Computing Center! The Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) at The University of Texas at Austin is one of the leading centers of computational excellence in the United States. Since it began supporting researchers in 2001, TACC has expanded at a tremendous rate, both physically and computationally. From a staff of only 15, and one mid-level Cray supercomputer, TACC has grown to more than 150 staff and students, and multiple world-class advanced computing resources including Stampede2, Lonestar5, Hikari, Wrangler, Jetstream, Maverick, Stallion, Stockyard, Corral and Ranch. The center's mission is to enable discoveries that advance science and society through the application of advanced computing technologies. To fulfill this mission, TACC identifies, evaluates, deploys, and supports powerful computing, visualization, and storage systems and software. TACC's staff experts help scientists and educators use these technologies effectively, and conduct research and development to make these technologies more powerful, more reliable, and easier to use. TACC staff also help encourage, educate, and train the next generation of researchers, empowering them to make discoveries that change the world. If you are interested in applying for a position at TACC, taking a tour of our facilities, attending our training courses or classes at The University of Texas at Austin, or performing research with TACC systems, please visit our website: http://www.tacc.utexas.edu.

TACC's inaugural U.S. National Science Foundation Leadership-Class Computing Facility (NSF LCCF) Internship cohort is underway! This program is designed to provide hands-on experience, professional development, and the opportunity to work closely with experts at TACC. Throughout this experience, interns will receive the computational skills necessary to enter the tech workforce. The Fall 2024 Internship concludes February 21, 2025. "Through this experience, we want participants to acquire skills they can use throughout their careers in computer science. Applications for the Spring cohort (January 21-June 6) are coming soon, so stay tuned." — Delores Rice, Education and Outreach Research Associate, TACC

Day Two of TACCSTER 2024 was a shining success! 🌟 Thank you to keynote speakers Clint Dawson and Stella Offner of the Oden Institute for Computational Engineering and Sciences and the many other presenters who shared their research on topics ranging from truthfulness in social media posts to effects of the solar eclipse using geospatial simulations to a computational investigation of fluoride export proteins. Attendees participated in a special session on machine learning, lightning talks, day one of the poster session, machine room tours, and more. We enjoyed a fantastic reception to end the day. Looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow! #HPC #supercomputers #AI
