Industrial Collaboration Program (ICP)

The ICP provides industry with a fast, flexible and cost-effective way to start bench-to-bench collaborations with Cornell faculty members. Cornell faculty members have been grouped under 7 research themes to enable industry sponsors to identify the most appropriate academic partner. However, other research areas are also represented at Cornell. Industry scientists are invited to contact the Industrial Partnerships office for further information.
