The multidisciplinary
Research Center...
The École Polytechnique Research Center is
comprised of 20 laboratories specialized in
8 major scientific fields: biology, chemistry,
computer science, economics, mathematics,
applied mathematics, mechanics, and physics.
It employs over 1600 research personnel,
financed by École Polytechnique and other
institutes, such as the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS), the National Institute for
Research in Computer Science and Control
(INRIA), the Atomic Energy Commission (CEA),
the National Institute for Health and Medical
Research (INSERM), École Nationale Supérieure
de Techniques Avancées (ENSTA ParisTech) and
other partner universities.
The role of the Research Center is to combine
continuous progress in the most fundamental
aspects of research for the advancement of
knowledge with development in the most pertinent major fields which respond to the scientific,
technological and societal issues of the 21st
century.
