Classroom Accounts NCSC supports university courses in our continuing effort to promote the growth of computational science throughout North Carolina. Teaching or classroom accounts are available to support courses with supercomputing applications at various education levels. Instructors at any North Carolina academic institution are encouraged to apply for a classroom account to be used in any curriculum that incorporates computational science. The resources granted for each class are based on the type of class project and the number of students in the class. Typically, each student receives the equivalent of a familiarization account unless other arrangements are made.
Classroom accounts terminate at the end of the semester exam period.
If a class account extends over two semesters, it must be renewed for the second semester. Upon reaching the account CPU limit, class accounts are subject to immediate removal from the system. Other resources that may be available with class accounts include reference manuals to supplement class material, training manuals, and assistance with classroom instruction.

These accounts are intended for faculty whose teaching or research can benefit from access to high performance computing resources, but whose CPU time needs are small.
