Economic Policy Studies was established in 1974, as a research programme in the Department of Electrical Engineering.
The Robotics and Automated Systems Centre was established in 1983, as was the Centre for Composite Materials.
The Science of Materials covered research carried out in various departments. In 1972, Materials Science was established as an undergraduate course centred in the Department of Metallurgy (later the Department of Materials).
The Imperial College Centre for Environmental Technology (ICCET) was founded in 1977, the first of the interdisciplinary centres within Imperial College crossing traditional boundaries between departments. The Centre became part of the T H Huxley School of Environment, Earth Sciences and Engineering in 1998, which also amalgamated the Departments of Earth Resources Engineering and Geology. The Centre for Remote Sensing was established as part of the Centre for Environmental Technology.
