学者在日益复杂的机构环境中工作。大学越来越多地参与商业活动，同时它们产生了新的内部结构来管理研究活动。教职员工是这些互动发展和成熟的主要代理人。这些机构和行业安排如何影响教师职业生涯管理，在最近的工作中继续进行调查。我们使用科学技术人力资本理论来检验大学研究中心附属关系有助于促进大学教授有价值的产业参与的假设。我们特别感兴趣的是，性别如何缓和大学研究中心隶属关系对工业活动的影响。我们对美国研究型大学的终身教职科学家和工程师进行了研究，发现与大学研究中心的联系会增加男性和女性对行业的参与度。我们的结论是，大学研究中心的发展导致了教授之间机构分层的新基础，附属机构比其完全以系为基础的同行从事更多的工业活动。虽然大学研究中心隶属关系对男性和女性都有优势，但男性大学研究中心附属机构在产业参与方面比女性中心附属机构略有优势。&2009爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
Academics work in increasingly complex institutional environments. Universities become more engaged with commercial activities at the same time that they generate new internal structures to manage research activities. Faculty members are the principal agents through which these interactions develop and mature. How these institutions and industrial arrangements affect faculty career management continues to be investigated in recent work. We use scientific and technical human capital theory to test the hypothesis that university research center-affiliation helps to facilitate valuable industrial involvement by university professors. We are particularly interested in how gender may moderate the effects of university research center-affiliation on industrial activities. We study tenure-track academic scientists and engineers in US research universities to find that affiliation with a university research center increases the industrial involvement of both men and women. We conclude that the development of university research centers has resulted in a new basis of institutional stratification among professors, with affiliates engaging in more industrial activities than their exclusively department-based peers. Although university research center-affiliation advantages both men and women, male university research center-affiliates enjoy a slightly greater advantage than female center-affiliates in their industrial involvement. & 2009 Elsevier Ltd.
