The Berkeley Sensor & Actuator Center (BSAC) is supported and guided by a consortium of industry leaders.
With a relatively modest investment, BSAC members gain unique access to cutting-edge interdisciplinary MEMS research and BSAC faculty, students, and postdocs. Through semi-annual Industry Advisory Board (IAB) meetings, members have the opportunity to review and comment on active research projects.
The Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/UCRC) model involves forging deep relationships between academic research and industry so that university researchers can benefit from industrial experience, and industry can more rapidly transfer new technologies.
