I'm a final yr student undertaking a project which requires a
microcontroller with an operating clk freq at 60MHz.

My university has altera DE2 boards available, which to my
understanding has oscillators @ 50MHz.

A suggestion was to overclock the fpga, however I don't know where to
start looking. Would someone be able to point me in the right
directions to obtaining such information ?

I also have that board. In the board lower right hand corner. There is
a ext. clock input.
What you need to do is
1. Find a cable with connect for that input
2. Connect the cable to a clock generator with the MHzyou want.

or you need to know how to configure PLL to get the clk you need.
