The subfield has specialisations in cybernetics / signal processing; computer science; physics and mathematics. The doctoral programme is linked to the research within each of these specialisations.
Research at the department
The department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science has research in computer technology, signal processing and cybernetics.
The department has the program area Health Technology, several research groups and other interdisciplinary research collaboration. We have great expertise in artificial intelligence, and has gathered this investment in the Stavanger AI Lab network.
Stavanger AI Lab
A node for research, innovation and education in artificial intelligence at University of Stavanger (UiS).
Stavanger AI Lab connects researchers, educators and students at UiS with partners in industry, business and public sector with the focus on artificial intelligence (AI) research and development.
Welfare Technology
With the help of new technology and smarter organization in the health sector, the researchers at UiS are working to solve health challenges in our welfare society.
Biomedical data analysis
Biomedical data analysis is an interdisciplinary research group that uses ideas and approaches from signal and image processing, statistics, biology, chemistry and medicine.
Health technology innovations contribute significantly in the health and care sector. These activities are connected to BMDLab (Biomedical Data Analysis Laboratory).
Head of research group are professors Kjersti Engan and Trygve Eftestøl.
