Two schools have affixed their signatures to partnership pacts with L-3 Communications, according to a press release.

The STRATIS division of the firm will merge efforts with research laboratories at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the University of Maryland to work on technology research and development projects that aim to strengthen the capacities of complex computing.

"These key university alliances continue to demonstrate STRATIS' role as a thought leader within the national security market space," said president Les Rose with L-3 STRATIS. "The work being conducted at CSAIL and HCIL complements our current research and development initiatives, which will result in innovative solutions for our customers' toughest challenges in cybersecurity and information technologies."
