It operates 28 accredited laboratories and participates in national and EU-funded programmes, including Horizon Europe, Interreg and NextGenerationEU.
Notable projects include:Sludge2Energy, conducted in collaboration with the Department of Agriculture, which develops technologies to convert agricultural and urban sludge into bioenergy and soil improvers, in partnership with institutions in Italy, Egypt, and Cyprus.

The Institute of Emerging Technologies hosts the Nanotechnology & Printed Electronics Division, which conducts research on graphene-based materials, printable electronics, and advanced energy devices. The group has produced the first autonomous graphene–perovskite photovoltaic system featured in Nature Energy, and works on low-cost perovskite solar cells, smart implants, and next-generation fuel cells. HMU also co-runs an inter-institutional MSc in Nanotechnology for Energy Applications with the University of Crete and FORTH and is a core partner of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master EMINENT, hosting the programme’s first semester on functional nanomaterials and emerging technologies.
