In recent years, societal interest in the transfer of technology from university to industry has made the development of appropriate linkage mechanisms to industry a major issue at a broad range of research universities. Dr. Etzkowitz is documenting the origins and legitimation of university-industry linkage mechanisms such as consulting, research contracts, centers and formation of new firms. He is investigating these issues in the context of the experience of MIT, one of the first and certainly among the most heavily involved of research universities which have sought industrial connections. Dr. Etzkowitz is examining the circumstances that gave rise to linkages between MIT and industry and is analyzing how the relationships that developed modified MIT's academic role, changed the functions of the institution; and affected the way that industry interacted with MIT. The integration of such activities into the academic enterprise was often problematical even at an institution like MIT which is ostensibly devoted to the support of industry. A series of controversies over industry relations took place at MIT that will be the focus of this study. The historical examination of these issues and how they were resolved at MIT can provide a framework for understanding contemporary conflicts over university-industry ties and provide guidelines for their resolution.

近年来，社会对从大学到工业的技术转移的兴趣使得发展适当的与工业的联系机制成为广泛的研究型大学的一个主要问题。Etzkowitz博士正在记录大学-产业联系机制的起源和合法性，如咨询、研究合同、中心和新公司的形成。他在麻省理工学院的经验背景下研究这些问题，麻省理工学院是第一个也是最积极参与的研究型大学之一，它寻求与工业的联系。Etzkowitz博士正在研究导致麻省理工学院和工业之间联系的环境并分析这种联系如何改变了麻省理工学院的学术角色，改变了该机构的功能；并影响了工业界与麻省理工学院的互动方式。即使在像麻省理工学院这样表面上致力于支持工业的机构，将这些活动整合到学术事业中也常常存在问题。在麻省理工学院发生的一系列关于行业关系的争议将成为本研究的重点。对这些问题的历史考察以及它们在麻省理工学院是如何解决的，可以为理解当代大学与工业关系的冲突提供一个框架，并为解决这些冲突提供指导。
