The generation, transfer and dissemination of new knowledge<\/strong><\/em> in the field of engineering in its broad sense. Through its lines of research, the institute has integrative activity between fields such as industrial production engineering and automatic control of complex processes, social, hospital and medical robotics, environmental technology, hygrothermal conditioning and energy quality, simulation and modeling of complex systems, maintenance of infrastructure and heritage, etc.<\/p><\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

It will carry out dissemination activities<\/strong><\/em> in a way that guarantees social visibility<\/em><\/strong>. Likewise, to evaluate their productivity, quantifiable scientific objectives will be pursued (scientific publications, patents, competitive research projects and contracts with companies and institutions, without forgetting the preparation of master's thesis and doctoral theses, as well as the specialized training of researchers and technologists).<\/p><\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
