University—Industry Relations: A Review of Major Issues

The relationship and the collaboration processes between universities and industrial companies have been the subject of increased interest in the past decade. Several workshops have been conducted, some sponsored by Federal agencies [1, 2, 3], others by universities and commercial entities [4, 5, 6, 7]. The National Science Foundation conducted and funded major efforts in industry-university cooperative research [8, 9]; such programs include the recently established engineering research centers in several universities. In other such programs, the Industry-University Collaborative Research Centers (IUCRC) involve multicompany arrangements in which each company pays a participant annual fee [10, 11].
