ABSTRACT
Research partnerships between industry and academia are grown through relationships, a desire for innovation, and opportunities for sponsorship. Relationships mature through the mobility (virtual or otherwise) of academics, graduates, and seasoned industry professionals. From an industry perspective, innovation is driven by a need to grow product portfolios, market share and rejuvenate the corporate talent pool. Academics may be more motivated by the search for knowledge, the desire to publish, and the need to move education yardsticks by keeping curriculum relevant and mentoring top students. Research in an industry context ranges from in-house "labs" to a hybrid combination of company acquisitions and -- or university partnerships. Tech talks, facilitated workshops, forums, sabbaticals, internships, grants, equipment donations, and corporate philanthropy - not to mention active engagement between researchers - are all part of the mix. Panelists will discuss and debate the merits various of research engagement strategies.

Academic-Industry Collaborations: Effective Measures for Successful Engagement
ITiCSE '17: Proceedings of the 2017 ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science EducationDrawing on Mishra and Koehler's "TPACK" model [1], we recognize that great Computer Science (CS) teaching demands great pedagogy, great technology skills and great subject knowledge. The main challenge facing any jurisdiction in implementing a CS ...
The need for interdisciplinary undergraduate research
SIGGRAPH '16: ACM SIGGRAPH 2016 PostersIn 2009, the ACM/SIGGRAPH Education Committee established an Undergraduate Research Alliance [Undergraduate Research Alliance] to foster the development of undergraduate research, in computer graphics and interactive techniques, across all related ...
Industry partnerships to support computer science high school teachers' pedagogical content knowledge
SIGITE '14: Proceedings of the 15th Annual Conference on Information technology educationThere is a critical need for computer scientists in the new digital age, a need that is not being met largely due to a lack of qualified computing teachers in K-12. In this project, we explore a three- year, on-the-job teacher preparation program (TEALS)...
