There are several steps for a project application ...
- Selection which type of project proposal is applicable
- Login to the application portal via
- Managing one or several applications in the application portal
- Details for each project application
- Finalize and submit your application
Afterwards, the submitted application undergoes a technical and scientific
review and you will be informed about the result in 1 to N work days.
If a project is granted, you can use the project management portal
[https://hpcprojekte.zih.tu-dresden.de/](https://hpcprojekte.zih.tu-dresden.de/application/).
All steps for an application are documented in detail below.

Choose the project type. Please note the information about the project types on the page.
The project application differs depending on the type of application - and thus which components of our HPC system - resources are applied for.
After a new project application is created you can choose a
* **Trial project**: With a trial projects you can test
whether the HPC resources meet your requirements.
Trial projects are all applications with up to 3500 CPUh/month
or 250 GPUh/month. No detailed project description is required.
* **Regular project**: A regular project are for data intensive and
compute intensive HPC applications, e.g. FEM, CFD and MD simulations.
Regular projects have higher resource requirements than the trial projects.
A detailed project description is required in addition to the online application.
* **Courses**: Courses is a project type for teaching courses,
where you can enable up to 5000 CPUh/month, without additional
communication. If there is a higher resource requirement needed,
it can be enabled after consultation the HPC support.
No detailed project description is required.
Please be aware, that in exceptional cases, ZIH reserves the right
to request a more detailed abstract.
