Innovation Center Update
• General agreement with Motorola for a $3M gift is targeted to be completed during this month.
• Plans and drawings to facilitate old Jewel building (by Harrison and Racine) to create state of the art innovation center are complete and renovation expected to be finished by 1Q,08
• Initial budget will support three interdisciplinary projects (Colleges of Business, Architecture and the Arts, and Engineering) are involved and working teams meet regularly to track progress.
• First project has been approved by the Deans and Motorola and it is underway, two remaining projects still under discussion.

Technology Center
Sep. 7, 2007 UIC College of Engineering 58
Technology Center Overview
• The College of Engineering at UIC has decided to create a Technology Center as part of the Strategic Plan 2010 for the College.
• Given that UIC is located in the heart of Chicago, it should be possible for the College to create Technology Centers
• As traditional research funding flattens, this could be a new source of funding
• The market for Engineering Services in the US is $180 billion, whereas the total funding for basic research is $54 billion
• Can be used as a resource by local companies and government agencies
• Bring in shorter term research and development contracts
• Similar to model of Energy Resources Center at UIC or Information Sciences Institute at USC, GTRI at Georgia Tech, Applied Physics Lab at Johns Hopkins University
Sep. 7, 2007 UIC College of Engineering 59
Technology Centers• Win for Industry
– Normal cost of outsourcing of contracts is $150 per hour – Outsourcing of projects to India/China is cheap but faces difficulty of remote
management– UIC is uniquely positioned in being one hour from local industry– Can be done at competitive prices ($40 per hour involving graduate
students)
• Win for Students– Provide alternate source of financial support for students– Provide Co-Op Experience locally at UIC– Prepare them for future employment
• Win for UIC and College of Engineering– Increase total funding, helps rankings– Increase ties between faculty and industry– May lead to more research funding
Sep. 7, 2007 UIC College of Engineering 60
Tech Center Agreement• Faculty can complement their existing consulting services with services
provided as part of the Tech Center – Can only work a total one day a week on these activities, limit 52 days/year
• Graduate students limited to 20 hrs/week during Fall and Spring Semester, 40hrs/wk + during Summer
• Authorized to use University Facilities such as labs, computers, software as part of these consulting projects
• Any NEW intellectual property that is developed as part of the consulting will be owned by company/customer - not UIC
• Any past IP that UIC faculty have developed prior to consulting project will remain owned by UIC
• Company can license the past IP under existing OVCR terms
• All faculty and students will sign Non-Disclosure Agreements
Sep. 7, 2007 UIC College of Engineering 61
Financial Statement
• Program was officially approved by UI Board of Trustees on March 13th,2007
• Companies Involved:• Motorola• JSC • Baxter• Lisle Technology Partners• Sargent and Lundy• PCTel• Others
• Around 20 students are active in this Program
• Revenue for 2006-2007 (June Close) was around $650k; Projecting 2007-2008 to be 50% higher
Sep. 7, 2007 UIC College of Engineering 62
Role of Advisory Board
• This is a very attractive value proposition for local companies.
• More companies are taking advantage of this resource
• Need to grow at a faster rate
• Need assistance from AB member companies to use and commit to use this valuable offering to show
support.
