A Theoretical Core
It is vital to develop the theoretical core within SSKKII's domain. Without a good theoretical basis we lack the ability to do original research and to handle difficulties arising in applied research. Greater knowledge and understanding has its own intrinsic value. That is why most dedicated researches are drawn to their profession. Without good basic research an academic discipline cannot survive in the long run.
However, we also work with applications that can be of direct significance for trade and industry. Only by working with both theory and applications together can we be useful and create an intellectually stimulating center that will attract good thinking from inside and outside the university.
