Transferring Software Engineering Research into Industry: The Stevens Way

摘要

The Stevens Institute School of Systems and Enterprises (SSE) was founded on the principle of the Open Academic Model - which has the fundamental intent of enabling rich collaboration among Academia, Industry and Government. This paper describes different methods used by the Software Engineering (SwE) Program to enable this collaboration and gives examples of the results obtained. The collaboration primarily takes the form of SwE knowledge transfer and deployment into industry and government through graduate education and sponsored research. This paper is a case study of the experiences in one small SwE Masters' program in the methods used to transfer research knowledge into industry, and in some cases, create new SwE knowledge. Examples of student papers and sponsored research topics are used as evidence.
