Sponsored Research

At IST, we are proud of the strength and diversity of our sponsored research.

Our integrated vision of research and learning is illustrated through the symbol of a tree. The roots represent the three basic constructs that define our program: information, people, and technology; the trunk represents the integration among them. Branching out from the trunk are the research themes that are part of the ever-evolving field of information sciences and technology, helping our society along the way in the following forms:

• More effective information presentation to students
• Intelligent agents in support of improved decision-making
• Intelligent search engines for better information access
• Real-time monitoring of health conditions
• Safety management in complex environments via intelligent monitors
• Support of national security endeavors

Please spend some time exploring the work of our faculty and see how they are expanding the research subjects illustrated here and beyond.
