Center for Advanced Research Computing

Explore how the Center for Advanced Research Computing (CARC) at USC enables researchers to go beyond the limits of personal computing. With access to more than 1,000 servers and powerful high-performance computing (HPC) resources, faculty and students can process massive datasets, run complex simulations, and develop specialized AI models tailored to their fields. What once took days—or couldn’t be done at all on a laptop—can now be scaled to hundreds of simulations in the same timeframe. CARC provides not only infrastructure, but also guidance—helping researchers manage data, optimize workflows, and design systems that maximize the impact of their grant funding. By lowering computational barriers, the center empowers researchers to ask bigger questions, explore more nuanced problems, and accelerate discovery. Whether you're working in AI, data science, engineering, or any data-intensive field, high-performance computing is more accessible than you might think.
