CAMPUS in a glimpse

About

Founded in 2016, the National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest’s CAMPUS Research Institute is the university’s advanced research, development, and innovation institute for multi- and inter- disciplinary technologies. The institute is uniquely designed, both from the infrastructure point of view, as well as functionality. It holds a state-of-the-art 7-story green, sustainable, and intelligent building with unconventional power sources, energy recovery, reuse of resources, and Intelligent Management Systems. CAMPUS integrates >40 research labs/centers, spread over 8k square meters. The labs/centers are interconnected in a complete inter-disciplinary technological flow, starting with the study of materials, going through electrical engineering and electronics, power, and mechanics, and then to telecommunications, information technologies and computer science. The building in itself is a working lab. CAMPUS serves additionally as an educational environment for undergraduate and postgraduate studies and e-learning. Starting with 2024, CAMPUS also hosts the Cybersecurity Competence Centre ECCC which together with a Network of National Coordination Centres, contributes to strengthening the EU cybersecurity Community.

Empowering People Through Science. On A Large Scale

Mihnea COSTOIU, Rector, National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest, Romania Our community is truly brimming with ideas and energy. Initiatives across the university seem to converge towards an even greater sense of community and a large common purpose: servicing our nation and the world through solutions to the global challenges. This is exactly why, thanks to the extraordinary sustained and distributed effort of faculty, staff, students, and alumni, we have developed CAMPUS, a state-of-the-art interdisciplinary problem-solving facility dedicated to the looming problems of society and the private sector. From clean energy to better traffic, from smarter cities and enterprises to the future of the Internet, CAMPUS aims at deploying the convergence of the life, physical, and engineering sciences as a catalyst for new solutions. At a time when the world urgently needs more people who understand science and engineering, we extend the power of hands-on problem-solving to companies and institutions around the globe in the effort to explore a new model of university activity — enhancing communities through science. This is CAMPUS’s business proposal. CAMPUS sprang from the minds and hands of hundreds of people. On behalf of Politehnica Bucharest, I offer them and everyone who played a part in this project a most enthusiastic thank you.’ Mihnea COSTOIU, Rector, National University of Science and Technology Politehnica Bucharest, Romania

CAMPUS’s Mission

Bogdan IONESCU, CAMPUS’s President, Bucharest, Romania In addition to Politehnica Bucharest’s mission, in a nutshell, I can add that CAMPUS’s societal and engineering mission is to be human-centered and provide a creative environment for young as well as to experienced generations to learn through trial and error, to collaborate and share, to develop themselves as leading researchers/educators, to bridge the technology gap between various domains, to bring to light those impossible ideas that would lead to very high impact results shaping the future, to bring closer the industry sector and use their competitive environment to spinoff businesses that would advance our society, to live well and leave a legacy behind; all of these while cultivating our nation through “Made-in-Romania” results.’ Bogdan IONESCU, CAMPUS’s President, Bucharest, Romania
