Promoting Research and Innovation

1. Promoting Research and Innovation John Lie University of California, Berkeley

2. Mission of the Public Research University Creation of new Knowledge- Research/Graduate Teaching. Enhance Societal Impact- the service role Foster Entrepreneurship, Tech transfer. Educate future leaders- Improve the undergraduate experience. Insure Access across Socioeconomic Spectrum- Public University Role.

3. Berkeley ranks first among U.S. Universities • 32 Research Programs Considered “Distinguished” • 35 Graduate Programs Considered Among Top Ten • 19 Nobel Laureates (current & former faculty) • 131 Members National Academy of Sciences • 74 Members of the National Academy of Engineering • 17 Recipients of the National Medal of Science • 235 Fellows of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences • 155 Guggenheim Awards (in past 20 years) • 28 MacArthur Fellowships (in past 20 years)

19. 10 nm Constellation of “Nano” Disciplines Physics Chemistry Molecular and Cell Bio. Materials Science and Engineering Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Chemical Engineering Mechanical Engineering Energy and Environment Information Technology

20. CITRIS Merges Disciplines:EECS/IT with the Social Sciences Education Emergency Preparedness & Home Defense Energy Efficiency Environmental Monitoring Health Care Transportation Service to the Third World Using IT Social Science, Humanities & Business

21. Characteristics of Successful Industrial Consortia • Close involvement of company technical contributors with graduate students and faculty • Based on common technical interest • Free flow of visitors • Common view of importance of patents, I.P. • Flexible arrangements • 3-8 companies about right

22. Building University-Industry Partnerships- Lessons Learned • Use patents to enhance relationship, not as a revenue source. • Make sure University researchers focus on longer-term, precompetitive, multidisciplinary research. • Let technical agendas bubble up rather than being driven top down.

23. International and Area Studies

24. Regional Research University Excellence: Regional Economic Development:

25. Summary: The Berkeley Model • Enough Money • Competition for money useful • Diverse Sources of Researchers • Different modalities & styles • Decentralized, Interdisciplinary Institutions • Bottom-up, Fundamental/Upstream Research • Both pure and applied
