Read about the CDM's achievements in 2013
The 2013 annual report of the College of Management of Technology is now accessible online.
Preamble by Christopher Tucci, Director CDM:
Welcome! Having being here at EPFL since before the creation of the College of Management of Technology (CDM) in 2004, I have witnessed its development
throughout the years. When the opportunity arose in autumn 2013, I was happy to accept the nomination as the new Director. During this four-year
term, I will work on CDM’s strategy, internal management, and liaison with EPFL’s Administration, as well as act as advocate for the CDM across the campus and to the outside world.
In 2009, the College had grown, allowing the creation of two institutes: The Swiss Finance Institute @ EPFL and the Management of Technology & Entrepreneurship Institute. This past year, to move into new and important intellectual space, one of my first initiatives as Director was to broaden our research expertise by creating the Institute of Technology & Public Policy, led by Prof. Matthias Finger. This exciting new institute will aim at offering cutting edge research in ways to approach society’s urgent challenges in energy, transportation, telecommunications, and public health, and how to translate them in an appropriate policy-relevant way.
I am looking forward to working with our creative and hard-working team of professors, professional staff, post-docs, and students to develop CDM’s strengths in innovation, entrepreneurship, and impact, to enhance EPFL’s already growing reputation and contribute to campus life!
