From the standpoint of member companies, one of the outstanding benefits of participation in an I/UCRC is the opportunity to work with graduate students who are being exposed to industrial needs and practices. These students have learned to pursue their research with a view toward improving the competitiveness of U.S. industry. Graduates of I/UCRCs represent an effective and long-lasting form of knowledge transfer for their employers.

Through innovative education of these talented graduate and undergraduate students, the I/UCRC provides the next generation of scientists and engineers with a broad, industrially oriented perspective on engineering research and practice. We are proud to recognize these students.
