Learning outcomes

In the last two years, we generated more than two million dollars in sponsored research from the National Science Foundation (NSF), NASA, NIH, DOD, and many companies including Motorola, LexisNexis, RealNetworks, Pratt & Whitney, and IBM .We are in the midst of hundreds of hi-tech companies, some that are firmly established and others that are getting started - this area is now referred to as the "e-Coast". Our Industry Advisory Board consists of technical leaders and executives from these companies, who support our efforts both in research and in teaching. Our NSF-sponsored Industry/University Cooperative Research Center is designed to strengthen our collaboration with local companies and provide a number of benefits to local industry.
