Education: The Forgotten Element in Industry-University Relationships.
Fairweather, James S.
Review of Higher Education, v14 n1 p33-45 Fall 1990
The highly visible, large-scale research agreements between corporations and research universities imply that higher education's principle roles in economic development are applied research and technology transfer. This is misleading, masking the contributions through education and training, research, and professional development and suggesting only elite schools contribute. (Author/MSE)
