Labs & Equipment

Digital Engineering & Big Data Lab

Within UND’s National Security corridor, the state-of-the-art lab will be configured to provide individual and collaborative projects featuring the latest workstations with large monitors. In addition, the space will be equipped with highly specialized equipment to meet the curriculum of the newly developed digital engineering course taught by engineers from major defense contractors.

UND Computational Research Center (CRC)

The CRC houses its computational systems in the North Dakota University System (NDUS) data center, located on the University of North Dakota campus. The data center has been built to the criteria of a Tier 3 data center as defined by the Uptime Institute. Data center features include 5000sqft (currently 3,000 sqft built out with power, cooling, and racking) of machine room space, redundant power, and cooling systems, as well as dual fiber networks connecting the data center to the UND campus network, Internet1, and Internet2 through the North Dakota Statewide Technology Access for Government and Education Network (STAGEnet) and Northern Tier Network (NTN). The data center network is designed with up-to-date routing and switching, next-generation security appliances, and application delivery solutions. Network connectivity, security, and management is provided in a highly redundant configuration for secure and reliable service delivery. STAGEnet and NTN research networks offer 100 Gbps capacity with ScienceDMZ capabilities.
