NRP Forum

Chico State has recently joined the National Research Platform (NRP), a significant step that opens new opportunities for our campus community, especially for research faculty and students. The NRP is a collaborative, community-owned resource supported by over 50 institutions and funded by agencies like the National Science Foundation. It provides access to advanced technologies in high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence, data storage, and networking, all designed to accelerate research and foster innovation across disciplines.
