Computing Time

The NHR centers provide high-performance (Tier 2) computing resources. Funding is allocated on a project-by-project basis according to a joint science-led process. Scientists with a doctoral degree who belong to a German accredited university are eligible to apply. The NHR center at which the computing project is to be carried out can be freely chosen by the applicants. Until a common application portal is established, the applications process takes place at the selected center:
