The interdisciplinary research areas addressed by the Graduate School cover aspects of Computer Science (self-organisation, management, planning, simulation as well as security of mobile communication networks, cognitive systems and distributed data management) as well as of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (radio technology, information theory, modulation, coding, circuit technology, antennas and propagation) .
