Summary
Summary
This collection of essays describes innovative research mechanisms which universities are using to expand their research support in difficult economic times. Funding pressures have already affected the direction of research in engineering, business, social and behavioral, and natural sciences. Often these pressures have generated healthy cooperation between the universities and the private sector. Likewise, models must be found which provide fresh insights into the humanities, where research may not survive a long siege of economic retrenchment. This volume will help to provide models to those in universities, government and the private sector who are seeking enlightened approaches to both maintaining and expanding university research.
