CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
DIRECTOR AT THE CENTRE TECNOLÒGIC DE TELECOMUNICACIONS DE CATALUNYA
The Centre Tecnològic de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya (CTTC) started in 2001 as a non-profit research institution based in Castelldefels (Barcelona), resulting from a public initiative of the Regional Government of Catalonia (Generalitat de Catalunya), and with a high degree of self-financing. CTTC is member of the CERCA System (“Centres de Recerca de Catalunya”).
The main objectives of CTTC are to conduct research and engineering demonstration models in communications technologies (physical, access and network layers) and geomatics; to provide training and support to graduate students and post-docs in the scope of its R&D activities.
CTTC has a professional scientific management, a critical mass of researchers and projects, real possibilities of growing and establishing durable links with the industrial and business sectors, and the capacity of leading technological projects, both national and international.
CTTC’s core activity is the conception, design, implementation and experimentation of research and development projects, which must produce innovative results in all their development phases, in both scientific and engineering terms. The acquisition of an international reputation in its scientific and technological activity, shaped in terms of scientific production, will favour CTTC’s mission of becoming an Excellence Centre.
CTTC aims at fostering innovation potential by making new scientific knowledge accessible and supporting its implementation. The combination of engineering development and scientific research is a feature of CTTC that empowers the institution to be a bridge between academia and industry.
In this way, CTTC significantly contributes to consolidating Barcelona’s position as an important centre of technology, besides helping expand Spain’s role within the European telecommunications research community and industry. CTTC contributes to the economic growth of the Catalan industrial context, by becoming a partner of solid reputation in research and technological development, as well as a provider of knowledge and human resources for the industrial research.
