Center for Photonics Sciences (Formerly Institute of Photonics) combines all research and education in optics and photonics at the University of Eastern Finland. Our multidiscipline center is a unique collection of professionals in biology, chemistry, information technology, physics and applied physics, with the roots of photonics being the major research field in physics starting over 50 years ago, when the University of Joensuu was founded. Today Center for Photonics Sciences forms a world’s top-notch research environment.
Following university institutions are a part of Center for Photonics Sciences:
Department of Physics and Mathematics
School of Computing
Department of Chemistry
Department of Environmental and Biological Sciences
Department of Technical Physics
