IIS’s core research targets themes related to production and manufacturing—often building the foundations for important new scientific and engineering disciplines and helping to define the future. Since its foundation, the institute has been dedicated to addressing concrete problems in production and manufacturing through long-standing partnerships with industry. It is an approach to identifying effective solutions that demands the creation of new strands of knowledge. Stimulated by industrial collaborators, IIS researchers develop solution-oriented methodologies.
