02Mission
In an era of digital transformation and accelerating technological change, intelligent systems have become a cornerstone of scientific, industrial and economic development. The convergence of artificial intelligence, micro and nanotechnology, the Internet of Things, mechatronics and robotics, big-data analytics and cyber-physical systems calls for genuinely interdisciplinary teaching and research.
The School of Intelligent Systems was founded as a strategic response to emerging labour-market needs, to strengthen national technological capability and to educate problem-driven specialists. Traditional departmental structures alone cannot cover these tightly interconnected fields.
The School brings together electrical, computer and mechanical engineering with data science, creating a home for applied research, complex industrial problem solving and new technology. It operates within the College of Interdisciplinary Science and Technology at the University of Tehran.
