BSC hosts MareNostrum, the most powerful supercomputer in Spain. There are different options for visiting and knowing the supercomputer.
FACE-TO-FACE VISITS
The face-to-face visits are made from Monday to Friday from 8:30 am to 6:30 pm, by appointment and last 30-60 minutes. Groups can be up to 30 people.
PRIMARY SCHOOLS VISITS
We offer tours of MareNostrum to third and fourth-year primary school classes to tell them what supercomputers are and what they can be used for in a fun and female-focused way. During these tours, which are suitable for boys and girls, students are constantly surrounded by female role models. The purpose of showing them mostly women working with the supercomputer is to convey the message that technology is also for women.
