Course Content

This panel will address how the combined resources from industry and academia create a multiplier effect, allowing new technologies to benefit society while also generating a well-prepared workforce. The session will investigate how academia bears primary responsibility for preparing the next generation of researchers and professionals with the necessary skills to make advance industry and society. A shortage of industry collaboration could lead academia not gaining enough real-world experience to remain on the cutting edge of societal requirements. While academia provides an environment favorable for investigation and innovation, industry could offer the resources and financial stability to maintain long-term research initiatives. This panel will discuss how academia and industry partnership is mutually beneficial and crucial.
