The Department of Computer
Science and Engineering's Industrial Affiliates Program aims
to support the mutual needs of business, industry, and
academia in computer research, development, and education.
This is accomplished by providing appropriate mechanisms for
technical exchange and collaboration and employment of
students. Contacts with prospective employees can be
established easily; affiliates have early access to student
resumes and student and faculty publications. Special
seminars and short courses can be arranged. Faculty members
are available for informal technical discussions and more
formal presentations. A faculty member is designated as a
liaison for every member company. Similarly, each industrial
affiliate designates up to three employees as technical
representatives to the program. Membership contribution
guidelines are modest: $500/year for companies of fewer than
20 employees and startups, $2,500/year for those with
between 20 and 150 employees, $5,000/year for those with
between 150 and 1000 employees, and $10,000/year for larger
companies.
