OUR FUNDAMENTAL MISSIONS
Research
Priority has been given to three fields of research: Digital Security, Data Science and Communication Systems.
High level education
- Two National Master's Degrees (Masters of Science) : Master's degree in Computer Science, track in Digital Security or Data Science and Master's degree in Networks and Telecommunications, track in Intelligent Communication Systems or Internet of Things (IoT)
- Two Post Masters' degrees, accredited by the CTI, in Communications for Intelligent Transport Systems and Security for Computer Systems and Communications
- An EURECOM French engineering degree open to students coming from "classes perparatoires" through Concours Mines-Télécom and upon admission
- Engineering studies for students in exchange at Master's level in partnership with EURECOM partner schools
- A thesis in collaboration with the doctoral schools of all the academic members of EURECOM
Doctoral program
EURECOM is involved with several doctoral schools and offers PhD students a central role by placing them at the very heart of the research dynamic. They benefit from a high-quality academic and working environment. They can do exploratory research on emerging subjects in the broad field of communication systems.
Innovation and transfer toward industry
Opening new paths towards future and emerging technologies, and establishing partnerships with companies to enhance knowledge transfer to tomorrow's industries are two keys strategies of EURECOM's policy.
EURECOM supports its students' and teachers' start-up projects with the Telecom parisTech EURECOM incubator.
CHALLENGES AHEAD
- Opening towards more high-level universities to reinforce network and international collaboration.
- Developing research in emerging fields and reinforcing areas of expertise.
- Reinforcing EURECOM’s position as a player of innovation process through its research with industry.
