Research at the Cyprus Institute is carried in cross-disciplinary Centers that address problems of great scholarly relevance, global significance and regional focus. The overall goal of the research program is to apply rigorous scientific and technological approaches to issues that are of clear relevance to Cyprus, the EU, the Eastern Mediterranean and the Middle East.

Individual Research Centers are structured around thematic areas, not scientific disciplines. Each Center defines its internal priorities and initiates individual projects, consistent with the overall strategy of the Institute. Shared infrastructures incorporating state of the art technology support the research activities of all Centers.
