100 theses defended at ICFO
Celebration of an institutional milestone
July 24, 2015
ICFO was founded in 2002 by the regional Government of Catalonia and the Unversitat Politècnica de Catalunya · Barcelona Tech with the mission to become a world-leading, wide-scope research center in photonics. Central to our mission is the training of the next generation of scientists and technicians through courses, seminars, access to cutting-edge experimental infrastructures, and mentoring by researchers that are among the best in the world in their field. This training aims to equip talented students with unique capabilities that help them become future leaders, either in the academic or in the industrial world.
Just 13 years into the life of our institute, we celebrate the defense of the 100th thesis at ICFO. Our researchers are our most valued assets. They are bright, ambitious young women and men, with a talent for discovery, who aim to achieve difficult but important goals. They all leave an important mark on ICFO, each helping to measure what we have learned, how far we have come, and how much we have yet to learn.
In celebrating 100 theses defended at ICFO, we proudly recognize the contributions of ALL our PhD graduates.
