This institute deals with the topic of Smart Cities and, more broadly, with the transition of cities/territories towards sustainability (economic, environmental & social aspects). The SCI proposes to approach this thematic from a managerial angle (not a technical one) while collaborating with other disciplines (economy, geography, architecture, computer & environmental sciences, etc.).

In parallel, she has contributed to several book chapters and her research work has been presented regularly to the most pretigious conferences in her fields of research (EGOS, EURAM, EAA, ERSA...). 

She is also member of the Editorial Advisory Board of the Sustainability Accounting, Management and Policy Journal as well as member of the Steering Committee of the Environmental and Sustainability Management Accounting Network (EMAN-EU.org).

Since 2016, Prof. Dr. Nathalie Crutzen has received over 6 million euros research funding (from European, national and regional competitive funding programs, as well as private companies).

Finally, Professor Nathalie Crutzen has an international profile. She has a lot of collaborations with other universities, business schools and various organizations (businesses, cities) all over the world, especially to deal with issues related to sustainability, strategic management and smart cities.
