title: Industry-university cooperative research.
abstract: Industry-university cooperative research ventures offer significant benefits to sponsoring firms and university scientists alike. Society also benefits, since such ventures can accelerate the emergence of new technologies and the practical application of these technologies to important new products and services. Potential issues of concern to industrial sponsors and university researchers, such as the timing of publication of research results, can be resolved through well-designed research contracts responsive to the needs and expectations of both parties.
