How to reach us

NHR@FAU and HPC4FAU
Regionales Rechenzentrum Erlangen (RRZE)

Martensstr. 1
91058 Erlangen
  • Email: hpc-support@fau.de
  • Website: https://hpc.fau.de

Short description: Note: Currently we mostly work from home and thus cannot be reached via our office phone numbers. We can arrange virtual appointments by Zoom, MS Teams, or BigBlueButton. You may also call RRZE's HelpDesk (+49-9131-85-29955) and leave a message for us - but you probably get a faster response by sending us an e-mail (hpc-support@fau.de).
