Innovation Realization Laboratory (IRL) offers a program that
trains participants in fundamental aspects of commercializing
innovation and brings together teams of two MBA students and one
science/engineering PhD student to explore commercial possibilities
in the PhD students' dissertation topics. A recent extension of
the IRL curriculum has MBA-PhD student teams consult with teams
from Purdue's EPICS (Engineering Projects in Community Service)
program to analyze commercial possibilities in the public service
products developed and delivered by EPICS teams. The resulting
interaction allows science/engineering PhD students to apply their
IRL-based business training in a context that is independent of
their own research. |
