Interdisciplinary Research Institutes

The College of Computing's interdisciplinary research institutes (IRIs) bring together scientists and engineers from various research areas, students, and partner organizations to work together to find answers to some of society's most challenging questions. With staff knowledgeable about broad research areas, these institutes provide single points of contact for organizations conducting research at Georgia Tech.

Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Machines

The Institute for Robotics and Intelligent Machines (IRIM) serves as an umbrella under which robotics researchers, educators, and students from across campus can come together to advance the many high-powered and diverse robotics activities at Georgia Tech. 

Institute for People and Technology

The Institute for People and Technology (IPaT) brings together researchers from across Georgia Tech to support world-class research, engage students, and collaborate with industry, government, and nonprofit partners. IPAT's goal is to maximize Georgia Tech’s societal impact through people-centered innovation.

Institute for Data Engineering and Science

The Institute for Data Engineering and Science (IDEaS) provides the coordination and expertise necessary to link researchers across the Institute, strengthening Georgia Tech's position in big data. The IRI will link research centers and efforts horizontally in foundational areas such as machine learning, high-performance computing, and algorithms. 

Center for 21st Century Universities
