Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Laboratory (JLab) is the newest Department of Energy national laboratory, with a world leading emphasis on nuclear physics, employs more than 800 people, and its mission includes "to provide forefront scientific facilities, opportunities and leadership essential for discovering the fundamental structure of nuclear matter". The Department of Energy has just recently selected JLab for its new High Performance Data Facility Hub (HPDF), which will be a $300-500 million computing and data infrastructure resource that will provide transformational capabilities for data analysis, networking, and storage for the nation’s research enterprise. NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) is the oldest NASA center, employs more than 3,400 people, and "works to make revolutionary improvements to aviation, expand understanding of Earth’s atmosphere and develop technology for space exploration." We plan to select researchers from JLab and LaRC to have faculty roles in the new School.

In addition, a new Joint Institute for Advanced Computing in Health and Climate Studies also has been established between ODU and JLab (with opportunities for collaboration with LaRC) to address resilience and population health challenges in southeastern Virginia and beyond through a combination of cutting-edge computational approaches and community-engaged participatory research. The Commonwealth of Virginia has also approved the merger of Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS) with ODU, which will take place in 2024 and provide ODU with collaboration opportunities in Medicine and Health Sciences.
