The CyberGIS Center for Advanced Digital and Spatial Studies (CyberGIS Center) was established in 2013 as a cross- and trans-disciplinary center engaging a number of units at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and diverse partners in the US and world.

The University of Illinois’ Coordinated Science Laboratory is a premier, multidisciplinary research laboratory that focuses on information technology at the crossroads of circuits, computing, control, and communications. Led by a faculty of world-renowned experts and researchers, CSL uses these innovations to explore critical issues in defense, medicine, environmental sciences, robotics, life-enhancement for the disabled, and aeronautics.

The Cline Center for Advanced Social Research equips and empowers a new generation of social scientists, humanists, and data scientists to take up key challenges that threaten human flourishing in the 21st century—climate change, civil unrest, sustainability, inequality, security, and public health, to name a few—by applying advanced computational techniques at extreme scales to discover innovative solutions hidden in unstructured data.

The mission of the Children and Family Research Center is to maintain a program of research that contributes to scientific knowledge and informs both policy and practice related to child safety, permanency, and the well-being of children and families.

The Child Development Laboratory parallels the three-part teaching, research, and service missions of the University of Illinois by facilitating student observations of children, allowing select research/teaching projects to occur at the school, and serving as a center for teacher training.

The Center on Health, Aging, and Disability provides leadership in interdisciplinary research and engagement to support health and well-being across the lifespan, livable communities, and optimal living with disabilities. We work to promote discoveries addressing critical health and societal issues and facilitate collaboration between campus researchers and external partners.

The Center for South Asian and Middle Eastern Studies (CSAMES), promotes teaching and scholarship on South Asia and the Middle East and fosters a greater public understanding of these globally influential regions.

As part of the School of Social Work at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, CPRD seeks to support public policy in three ways: (1) improving state and community capacity for prevention, (2) improving prevention and educational practices through research and evaluation, and (3) improving policies and decision-making.

Our primary objective is to study plasma-material interactions relevant to fusion, semiconductors, and plasma manufacturing through a combination of computational and experimental means. Projects are supported by both government and commercial partners to further the application and knowledge of plasma physics.
