The main purpose of CFTMN is to facilitate research and educational activities in the fields of traditional and emerging communication technologies. Its vision is to create an open platform for research, education and innovation leading towards new applications and converged info-communication services.

The Centre's mission is achieved through cross disciplinary cooperation, joint research projects and publications, staff and student exchange, PhD and other educational programs, industrial partnerships, participation in national and international forums and conferences.

As a part of its consulting services, Centre for Telecommunications makes studies, development, research and technological projects, and adequate revisions. Users of the Centre's services include: telecom operators, private companies, government agencies, regulatory bodies, professional and scientific entities.

A fully equiped and certified Laboratory for electromagnetic field measurements also operates within CFTMN.

Furthermore, CFTMN is a part of the CTIF Global Network South East Europe Division. The CTIF Global Network consists of members throughout the world and works as a gateway to international partnerships and cooperation, providing an international platform for the purpose of strengthening competiveness in the global market.
