Your cooperation with us
ICOM is interested in working with industry partners on innovative projects.
The advantage of working with a university institution
Our expertise lies primarily in the field of applied research and development. As a public research institution, we offer both independence and professionalism.
The type of cooperation – the choice is yours
- The Institute of Communication Systems is available to industry as a partner for long-term research and development projects. However, we are also able to carry out short-term and professional tests, analyses and studies on a contract basis.
Link between school and industry
- Where possible, partial aspects are tackled as part of student assignments or bachelor and master theses. This results in interesting, practical tasks for the students. As a project partner, you benefit from a considerable reduction in project costs without loss of professionalism, continuity or flexibility.
Innovation at low cost
- In Switzerland, cooperation between industry and universities on innovative projects is financially supported. The respective research fund covers the university's expenses. As a recognized research center, we are in a position to apply for corresponding funding.
Your research or development project benefits twice over: firstly, your project costs are halved by the external funding. Secondly, you benefit from the expertise, experience and possibilities of an established university laboratory.
