Mission

The Integrated Systems Centre has the purpose of gathering faculty, graduate students, researchers and industrial partners in the research and development of design technologies for integrated systems. The centre researches different design aspects for integrated systems on silicon, as well as on heterogeneous platforms including, but not limited to, electrical, optical, micromechanical and biological components in various forms and mixtures. The scientific projects include topics at the intersection of various disciplines, such as electrical engineering, computer science, biology and medicine.
