Excellence comes with responsibility

Exzellente Ausbildungsbedingungen: Die Graduiertenschule Aachen Institute for Advanced Study in Computational Engineering Science (AICES) bietet ein hochkarätiges Betreuungsprogramm für herausragende Studierende, die eine interdisziplinäre und forschungsorientierte Promotion im Bereich Computational Engineering Science absolvieren möchten.

Excellent learning conditions: The Aachen Institute for Advanced Study in Computational Engineering Science (AICES) is a graduate school offering top-notch advising for outstanding students seeking an interdisciplinary, research-oriented PhD in computational engineering science.

Tomorrow’s mobile communication will require innovative transmission systems Transmission rates in mobile communications will need to impr ove dramatically in order to cope with increased mobile use of data services such as the internet. This is particularly challenging for communications technology and computer science due to the limited frequency spectrum available. At the same time, accessibility will need to increase significantly if the new services ar e to become popular. This is why UMIC scientists are working on mobile information and communications systems to meet future needs. The main pillars of the cluster’s research are new mobile applications and services, mobile networks and connections as well as highfrequency assemblies and highly-integrated systems. The new UMIC Resear ch Center opened in March 2009 with a visitors’ day. The building is home to new UMIC-funded professorships as well as laboratories for demonstrators and for researching new kinds of system components. Cluster of excellence on Ultra High-Speed Mobile Information and Communication (UMIC), Speaker: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Gerd Ascheid 29
