Knowledge Transfer
|
|
Within a modern, knowledge-driven economy, knowledge transfer is about effective linkages between third-level education and industry.
We believe in ‘transferring’ the best ideas, research results and skills to and between universities, other research organisations, businesses and the wider community to enable innovative new products and services to be developed.
Our suite of programmes supporting knowledge transfer is focused on developing partnerships that bring together businesses, research bodies and recent graduates to work on mutually beneficial company-based projects.
