The High Performance Computing Collaboratory (HPC²), an evolution of the MSU NSF Engineering Research Center (ERC) for Computational Field Simulation, at Mississippi State University is a coalition of member centers and groups that share a common core objective of advancing the state-of-the-art in computational science and engineering using high performance computing; a common approach to research that embraces a multi-disciplinary, team-oriented concept; and a commitment to a full partnership between education, research, and service. The mission of the HPC² is to serve the University, State, and Nation through excellence in computational science and engineering.

Member Centers and Institutes

The HPC² is comprised of five independent centers with the common characteristics of a multi-disciplinary, team-oriented effort that is strategically involved in the application and advancement of computational science and engineering using high performance computing.

• Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS)
  
• Center for Computational Sciences (CCS)
  
• Geosystems Research Institute (GRI)
  
• Institute for Genomics, Biocomputing and Biotechnology (IGBB)
  
• Northern Gulf Institute (NGI)
