Our research follows 7,547 researchers, builders, lab leaders and public voices through cited biographies. Missing career records can lower counts. Outdated roles can overstate current counts and change ranks. Publication numbers from OpenAlex, as of 22 October 2026. Career and profile data as of 22 October 2026.
We estimate that 9 people shaping AI have worked or studied at Tampere University of Technology, including 1 (11%) here now and 8 with former affiliations. That total covers 8 people with work roles and 1 recorded only as a student (3 both studied and worked here). Among 3,127 universities, Tampere University of Technology is tied for 404th by all-time people and tied for 495th by current headcount. Computer vision leads 4 areas of expertise (5 of 9 people with profile topics). In dated work stints through 2025, active headcount peaked at 4 people in 2014 and stood at 1 in 2025. Across dated career transitions, we record 7 full moves in and 6 out, led by departures to Tampere University (2).
A stacked column chart of our yearly estimates at Tampere University of Technology from 1995 to 2025. Each person counts once in each year with an active work stint.
