Welcome to the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC), a world leader in advanced computing and computational science. TACC’s advanced computing resources enable and enhance groundbreaking research in the sciences, engineering, and beyond. Please look around our Web site to learn more about what we do and to find information about upcoming events, education programs, and outreach activities.

As state support for higher education continues to decline, the need to boost U.S. competitiveness in science and technology has only increased. Private philanthropy plays an increasingly important role in allowing TACC to continue to offer the local, state, and national research communities the best computational resources and technologies available.

This page provides information about the various ways you can make a gift of support to TACC. Your generosity will help ensure the success of future scientific discoveries at The University of Texas at Austin.

Your gift to TACC help ensure that the center will continue to offer world class resources and services, innovative research and development activities, and groundbreaking education and outreach programs.

  In addition to Annual Giving support, donors may wish to support TACC through a designated gift to one of the center’s defined areas of emphasis. Often made over several years, designated gifts can directly fund construction, salaries, operating budgets, and at the highest levels they can establish endowments that generate sufficient annual income to fund programs in perpetuity.

• Future Support

  Including TACC in your retirement and estate planning allows you to provide crucial support for advanced computing, education, and research, while diminishing your own tax burden. From bequest to insurance policies, to trusts and more, UT’s Office of Gift Planning can help you create an estate plan that maximizes benefits to you, your family, and the University.
