At the core of our mission lies the commitment to conducting excellent research, educating future generations, nurturing talent, and supporting stakeholders in advancing human-oriented technology. This perspective considers technology in its interactions with environmental, ecological, physiological, psychological, cultural, social, and economic domains.
A holistic approach underpins all activities: multi-domain interactions are systematically explored, and transdisciplinary goals and pathways are defined to ensure their achievement through both technological progress and behavioral change. In doing so, the institution contributes to advancing knowledge in engineering fields that enable sustainable, resilient, safe, inclusive, and affordable development.
We aim to contribute to scientific and technological advancement while educating new generations of engineering professionals and researchers capable of addressing the societal challenges of climate change, demographic transformation, and social divide in a comprehensive manner. Both the global dimension of these challenges and their local impact are taken into account. Local priorities and existing strengths are systematically identified and investigated in order to empower regional stakeholders to realize their potential and actively contribute to overcoming these challenges.
As a Faculty we seek to become a trusted partner in disciplinary and transdisciplinary collaborations within the university and with recognized research institutions and companies at regional, national, and international levels.
