ICC Celebrating 1000₂ Years

Chartered in 2015, the Institute of Computing and Cybersystems (ICC) is celebrating 1000₂ years. Starting with about 25 members in three research centers, in eight years the ICC has grown to seven centers and nearly 100 researchers from across campus representing all five Michigan Tech colleges and more than a dozen academic departments. The ICC was established through the generosity of alumnus and major donor Dave House ’65, and the House Family Foundation, with additional major donations in support of ICC research from Kanwal Rekhi ’69 and Paul Williams ’61. Active ICC-affiliated grants and contracts exceed $13.3 million. Read more.

Collaborative, Cross-Disciplinary Research and Learning

The ICC promotes collaborative, cross-disciplinary research and learning experiences in the areas of biocomputing and digital health, computing education, cyber-physical systems, cybersecurity, data sciences, human-centered computing, and scalable architectures and systems, for the benefit of Michigan Tech, the Great Lakes region, and society at large. Member scientists are collaborating to conduct impactful research, make valuable contributions in the field of computing, and solve problems of critical national importance.

Originally the research arm of the Alliance of Computing, Information, and Automation (ACIA) at Michigan Tech, the ICC provides faculty and students the opportunity to work across organizational boundaries to create an environment that is a reflection of contemporary technological innovation. Member scientists are collaborating to conduct impactful research, make valuable contributions in the field of computing, and solve problems of critical national importance.

The ICC brings distinguished scholars to campus, hosts and sponsors seminars, and co-hosts, with the College of Computing, the annual Computing[MTU] Showcase. Additional member benefits include support for graduate students, student travel support, seed funds for junior faculty, proposal development services, computing facilities, and communications and marketing support, among many other activities.
