Research Computing

Get started with Research Computing

Research Computing supports research and discovery at ASU by offering computational resources and expertise to all ASU researchers and students. To get started with Research Computing, log onto the ASU VPN and use the Voyager RC Resource Manager to request an account. During this process, you will agree to the acceptable use policies.

For more on using Voyager, refer to: https://docs.rc.asu.edu/voyager-accounts/. 

Academic course support

Research Computing supports many academic courses throughout the year. If you are a faculty member teaching academic courses that will be supported by Research Computing’s resources, and you need to create temporary accounts for these classes each semester, you may use the Voyager RC Resource Manager to request an allocation.

If you prefer the legacy form, you may find it here.

User documentation 

Once you have an account on the cluster, you will be ready to compute. Our team offers frequent workshops to help get you started as well as detailed user-facing documentation.
