Industry Involvement - Becoming a Member of the Research
Alliance
Industry members with interests in the broad areas of
risk, reliability and maintainability are invited to
become a member of the research alliance.
As a member of the alliance you
will participate in guiding the strategic direction of
the center and have a voice in selecting research
projects, awarding grants to graduate students and the
ability to share work products generated for the center.
As a member you will also have access to some of the
leading experts in the field allowing your organization
to investigate avenues for which expertise does not
exist within your organization through In-Context
projects.

What are
they? |
In-context projects are designed to partner
the sponsoring organization with appropriate
faculty associates to work on problems of
mutual interest. The Alliance member gets
access to world class researchers and
students. They get research performed at a
fraction of the cost when compared with what
they would pay a consultant. Projects should
be scoped such that they provide enough
resource to fund a graduate student for at
least one academic year. In general this
would require a minimum of about $75k per
year. All In-Context projects will allocate
10% to the general research pool for center
designated projects of interest to the
general alliance. This allows all members to
leverage the work of others in solving
problems of general interest. |
