Industry-University Projects and Centers

It is widely held that improved industry-university (I- U) cooperation can contribute to technological innovation and productivity in the United States. Although various federal programs have attempted to stimulate cooperation between these two sectors, most have escaped serious evaluative scrutiny. This study describes an exception to this trend: an empirical evaluation and comparison of two federally funded programs designed to foster cooperative science. Among other findings, results appear to indicate that participants in I-U Projects perceive applied objectives like patent development as the most important goal of their collaboration, whereas I- U Centers promote a more basic goal of knowledge expansion. Participants within each model exhibit high agreement on the goals of their collaboration. In addition, both programs appear to stimulate new research projects back in corporate laboratories.
