The book documents the range and significance of academic research contributions to the five industries "comparing the importance of different types of contributions, the multi- and interdisciplinary nature of these contributions, and the multiple vectors by which academic research is linked to each industry. The book calls for action to address six cross-cutting challenges to university-industry interactions: the growing disciplinary and time-horizon-related imbalances in federal R&D funding, barriers to university-industry interaction in service industries, the critical role of academic research in the advancement of information technology, the role of academic research in the regulation of industry, the impact of technology transfer activities on core university research and education missions, and the search for new pathways and mechanisms to enhance the contributions of academic research to industry. The book also includes findings and recommendations specific to each industry. 606 $aIndustrial efficiency$zUnited States 606 $aAcademic-industrial collaboration$zUnited States 606 $aUniversities and colleges$zUnited States$xGraduate work 606 $aComputer networks$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aMedical instruments and apparatus industry$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aAerospace industries$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aFinancial services industry$xResearch$zUnited States 615 0$aIndustrial efficiency 615 0$aAcademic-industrial collaboration 615 0$aUniversities and colleges$xGraduate work. 615 0$aComputer networks$xResearch 615 0$aMedical instruments and apparatus industry$xResearch 615 0$aAerospace industries$xResearch 615 0$aFinancial services industry$xResearch 676 $a338.060973 712 02$aNational Academy of Engineering. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910960834203321 996 $aThe impact of academic research on industrial performance$94354608 997 $aUNINA
