I’d like access to multiple GPUs to run my simulations. What is the process for requesting access?

You can access multiple GPUs by submitting jobs to the multigpu partition. Multigpu partition is accessible only after application approval. For more information see [Partition Access Request](https://rc-docs.northeastern.edu/en/latest/hardware/partitions.html#partition-access) and the RC website: [https://rc.northeastern.edu/policy/](https://rc.northeastern.edu/policy/).
