The Cochrane Institute of Alpha Centauri was a human institution on Alpha Centauri. Named for Zefram Cochrane, the institute was dedicated to technological research and development, including warp propulsion, starship design and transporter technology.

In the 22nd century, the Cochrane Institute teamed with Earth scientists in developing the first transporter. (DS9 short story: "Dead Man's Hand")
