HPE and Rowan University Expand Partnership to Accelerate Research and Strengthen Student Workforce Readiness<\/b><\/p>\n

New advanced learning initiative boosts research capabilities, expands hands-on learning with AI tools, and improves campus connectivity<\/i><\/p>\n

HOUSTON & GLASSBORO, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–HPE<\/a> (NYSE: HPE) today announced an expanded partnership with Rowan University<\/a> to accelerate research, strengthen student training, and support the university\u2019s continued growth. Delivered in partnership with SHI International<\/a>, one of the world\u2019s leading technology solution providers, the initiative will enhance the performance and resilience of Rowan\u2019s technology environment to enable faster insight, more hands-on learning, and a better-connected campus experience.<\/p>\n

\nRanked among the top 100 public research institutions nationally, New Jersey-based Rowan University has expanded its research portfolio in recent years with a focus on engineering, health care, biomedical sciences, and advanced manufacturing. This growth is increasing demand for scalable compute and data services, as well as reliable connectivity across classrooms, student housing, and research facilities.<\/p>\n

\nBuilding on a more than 25-year relationship, the collaboration will help Rowan faculty and researchers work faster with large datasets, complex models, and advanced analytics, shortening time from hypothesis to result. Students will get hands-on experience with powerful supercomputing systems that power global research, along with enterprise platforms and AI tools used in coursework, research assistantships, internships, and class projects.<\/p>\n

\nIn close partnership with HPE and Rowan University, SHI worked with the University\u2019s Information Resources & Technology (IRT) team to implement a colocation facility supporting a new data center, enhancing institutional resiliency in the event of a disaster. By aligning solutions across HPE\u2019s networking, compute, storage, data center networking and HPC portfolios, and providing warehousing and deployment services, SHI enabled two data centers and a high-performance computing cluster.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cRowan University is deeply grateful to HPE and SHI for this extraordinary partnership,\u201d said Rowan University president Ali A. Houshmand. \u201cThis initiative will accelerate innovation across disciplines and expand hands-on learning opportunities that help prepare our students to lead in an AI-driven world.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nRowan selected HPE for the ability to deliver an integrated approach across infrastructure domains, backed by expertise to deploy and operate at scale. The expanded partnership is designed to deliver measurable outcomes for research productivity, teaching and learning, and campus connectivity. Rowan is shifting its campus networking platform to HPE Networking to support more consistent connectivity for students, faculty, and researchers, and to enable AI-enhanced network operations and insights that can improve reliability across campus.<\/p>\n

\nThe upgraded environment will help researchers run larger experiments and iterate faster across modelling and simulation, artificial intelligence, data analytics, and Internet of Things applications, among other areas. It is intended to support AI-driven research workflows, from data preparation and experimentation to model training and evaluation, while providing the scalable performance needed for data-intensive research.<\/p>\n

\n\u201cThis deployment helps Rowan move faster from ideas to results, giving researchers and students the dependable performance they need for data-intensive work,\u201d said Patrick Osborne, senior vice president of technology acceleration for hybrid cloud at HPE. \u201cBy bringing together the right mix of infrastructure capabilities, Rowan can support more teams, more projects, and more experiential learning at scale.\u201d<\/p>\n

\nWith the full-stack HPE solution, Rowan will expand capacity and improve service levels across storage, compute, high-performance computing, and networking.<\/p>\n
