Kathryn Kloepper (Mercer University, USA)
A research partnership between Mercer University and KaMin LLC (a local company in the kaolin industry) was developed to enable undergraduate students to perform industry-relevant research. Strategies to establish such collaborations will be presented, including the different modes of financial support, student mentoring, research dissemination, and project communication. Opportunities to bring an industrial research perspective to the classroom also will be presented.
