BSAC 37 Person Class of 1990• Students went on to become industry and academic

leaders and entrepreneurs in MEMS, helping to launch a multi‐billion dollar industry that did not previously exist.

• Three of the class eventually returned to UC Berkeley faculty appointments and to BSAC as current co‐Directors.

• The NSF I/UCRC program itself can be described as an “innovation ecosystem”

INFundamental Research Program

Overview• To provide fundamental research opportunities for IUCRCs• Expand the Center’s research portfolio into new areas, • Solidify center membership by adding value for existing

members, • (Eventually) lead to center growth by attracting new members• Research is to be industrially relevant and benefit both the

center and current or future industry members• Industry-defined fundamental research projects must

demonstrate measurable industry collaboration and involvement that accelerates fundamental research

• Each proposal must include a letter(s) from the participating member partner(s) detailing measurable industry collaboration (degree and extent to which industry will be involved with the proposed research).

INCollaborative Opportunity for Research Between I/UCRCs (CORBI) Overview

Purpose: Supplemental requests provide means for I/UCRCs to collaborate on projects of mutual interest that benefit the research portfolios of multiple centers.

Program Goal:– Create collaborative linkages between centers and industry

sectors – Support research that is industrially relevant and benefits

both centers and IABs, building innovative capacity

NSF funds must be matched by an Industry Advisory Board (IAB) commitment. The IABs must use membership funds already collected by the center, as this opportunity represents a choice that each can make in selecting center projects.
