Research units

Biomechanics and biomedical engineering (BMBI)

This research unit works in areas from the engineering sciences as well as life sciences in studying biomechanical or biomedical problems…

Enzym and cell engineering (GEC)

This research unit deals with the creation of new functions which do not exist in nature to explain the reality of the living world and to produce tools for biotechnology.

Heuristics and complex systems diagnostics (Heudiasyc)

This unit carries out research in automatics, decisions, images and computers while taking into account human factors.

Mechanics, acoustics and materials (Roberval)

The activities of this research unit concern the development of experimental, theoretical and multidisciplinary skills involved in the design of structures, machine components or mechanical systems integrating fluid-solid interaction.

Knowledge, organization and technical systems (COSTECH)
Costech is a team of researchers from various fields in the humanities and social sciences
 
Electromechanical (LEC)
LEC is a structure which is focused on a unique type of research: “Electrical actuators and embarked energy drivability systems".
 
Applied mathematics (LMAC)
LMAC’s activities concern fields such as applied mathematics, numerical analysis and optimization on one hand, and probability and statistics on the other hand.
 
Integrated transformations of renewable material (TIMR)
The fields of application of this laboratory are essentially in agro-industry and sewage and waste treatment

Analysis of environmental and urban vulnerability (AVENUES). This group's objective is to model the vulnerability and sturdiness of urban systems.

The notion of platforms was created to help carry out pluridisciplinary scientific projects. A platform is not a new research unit, but a project which lasts 3 to 4 years, and for which 2 research units or more share their human and financial resources.

UTC has developed a new concept called "innovation units". These units bring together researchers involved in developing prototypes or validating concepts.
