U.S. Brazil University-Industry Workshop: Technology Effects on Manufacturing and Services; Rio de Jareiro, Brazil; July 8-12, 1985

这次在里约热内卢举行的合作研讨会将为美国和巴西提供一个机会，让他们在行业和大学组织之间交流重要信息，并共同确定和规划未来的研究重点。将根据相似的技术能力(即钢铁、生物技术和薄膜)选择行业参与。预计教师和学生交流计划以及联合研究将成为这次研讨会的成果的一部分。研讨会将为NSF工业/大学合作研究中心计划提供宝贵的信息，以检查大学和公司之间不同水平的国际互动，为NSF试验确定建立具有国际定位的I/U CRC的适宜性做准备。

This cooperative workshop in Rio de Janeiro will provide an opportunity for the U.S. and Brazil to exchange important information between industry and university organizations and future research priorities that will be jointly identified and planned by the participants. Industries will be selected to participate on the basis of similar technical competence (i.e., steel, biotechnology, and membranes). It is envisioned that faculty and student exchange programs as well as joint research will be part of the output from this workshop. The workshop will provide valuable information to the NSF Industry/University Cooperative Research Centers Program in examining various levels of international interaction among universities and companies in preparation for an NSF experiment in determining the suitability of establishing I/U CRC's having an international orientation.
