This structure facilitates state-of-the-art research while simultaneously upgrading laboratory equipment and infrastructure. The institute also provides research stipends to postgraduate students and post-doctoral researchers, contributing to their development and engagement in cutting-edge research.
Overall, ICCS/NTUA is a leading research institute in Greece and Europe, recognized for its commitment to advancing the fields of Informatics and Telecommunications, aiming to become a Center of Excellence in these areas.
