Partnership

The ADVANCE CRT brings together over 50 research supervisors from computer science, electrical and computer engineering, social science, psychology and health science, to stimulate socially-responsible and inclusive creativity and innovation in the field of future networks and the Internet of Things. ADVANCE is a close partnership between five Irish Higher Education Institutions and Irish-based industry. ADVANCE is a rich ecosystem of partner universities involving University College Cork, Cork Institute of Technology, Maynooth University, Trinity College Dublin, and TU Dublin and large companies such as Nokia, Intel, DellEMC, u-blox, Vodafone, UTRC, Johnson Controls, JaguarLandRover and indigenous SMEs such as Taoglas, Decawave, Shimmer, Independet Living Ireland and local authorities and NGOs such as Dublin and Cork City Councils, RehabGroup and Enable Ireland.

We welcome contact from organisations in the industry and the voluntary sectors who wish to partner with us in training the next generation of highly skilled scientists and engineers through supporting work placements, research project definition, and training courses. If you are interested, please contact as at advance-crt@cs.ucc.ie

ADVANCE leverages complimentary research initiatives, particularly the SFI-funded CONNECT Centre for Future Networks. Internationally, we are engaged with a network of research groups from Universities and Research Institutes from around the world that will offer our students placement opportunities, such as Imperial College, TU Eindhoven, RWTH Aachen, University of Toronto, University of Auckland, IMDEA, and CEA.
