  • A Report on Research at IIT
    INVENTING THE FUTURE TOGETHER A Report on Research at IIT Highlighting advances in basic and applied research, technology transfer and commercialization. Report on Research 2 Message from the Dean As a research university, IIT’s mission is to create and disseminate knowledge and technologies that address national and global needs and priorities. In the past five years, the dedicated faculty, staff and research students of IIT have made tremendous progress in research and sponsored programs. Our researchers have contributed an amazing array of investigations, analyses, designs, prototypes, services, and tools. The charts and graphs on this page and the next two pages demonstrate our commitment to our research accom- plishments. The trends reported in this document are encouraging: • Over the past five years, sponsored project revenues have doubled. • The internal Education and Research Initiative Funds awarded to faculty on a competitive basis have achieved a 17-to-1 return in external program funding in the past five years. • IIT Research Scholarships offered to domestic students in sciences and engineering have attracted many highly qualified U.S. nationals and members of underrepresented groups in engineering and sciences to various graduate programs. • Seven research centers are established in critical technical areas. • Marketing and licensing of IIT inventions and technology commercialization activities have increased significantly. To enhance participation in research, the Graduate College continues to implement new faculty initiatives. In 2003, we offered tuition cost share for all Ali Cinar, Vice Provost for Research and Dean of graduate students budgeted on projects that carried full, on-campus, indirect cost. the Graduate College Also beginning in 2003, faculty were given spending jurisdiction on10 percent of the indirect cost recovery associated with their research projects to enhance their research infrastructure.

For me, this decision answered questions of both need and want—specifically, do I need two cars in the city, and do I really want the hassle of owning two cars while living downtown? In academe, issues such as sustainability have a tendency to unite the needs and wants, bringing together those who pursue research for the benefit of society and those who explore the same topics for the benefit of science.

Among its recommendations, the “Report of the Subpanel on the Long- Range Future of U.S. High-Energy Physics” calls for creating a system for prioritizing particle physics projects and, eventually, for building a new international particle accelerator “somewhere in the world”— preferably somewhere nearby. The new plan is the product of a 22-member HEPAP Subpanel, charged by the Department of Energy and the National Science Foundation with the daunting task of consulting with the U.S. particle physics community to produce a plan for the future of a field that, in recent years, has been hard pressed to maintain its leading edge. Straitened federal funding for U.S. particle physics, and indeed for all of the physical sciences, has left cash-strapped physicists struggling to maintain momentum in a science where Americans have traditionally led the field. The Subpanel’s report represents, if not a consensus on the best way forward, at least as close to consensus as they are likely to get in a community where strongly held opinions are as divergent as particles in a high-energy collision.

    ILLINOIS TECH. DIFFERENT. For nearly 125 years, Illinois Tech students have been looking at the world through a different lens— inventing new products, testing new solutions for tough problems, pushing the envelope, and using new technologies to do things better, smarter, and faster. Our students want a different type of education. They want opportunities to make a real impact— upon our economy, their neighborhoods, and the environment. Illinois Tech will give you what you need to stand out. Take a stand. Stand up. Be counted. So come to Illinois Tech if you want to inspire, create, work hard, and make a difference. S. R. Crown Hall Be prepared to change the world while you are here and after you graduate. Illinois Institute of Technology—where different is good. WE’RE PROUD OF OUR CAMPUS People from around the world come to Illinois Tech’s Main Campus to look at the buildings designed by legendary architect and faculty member Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. It’s easy to see why: Forbes magazine called Main Campus one of “America’s most beautiful college campuses.” More-recent additions to campus include Rem Koolhaas’s McCormick Tribune Campus Center and the State Street Village student residence, designed by Helmut Jahn, considered one of the “10 most influential living American architects” (American Institute of Architects). Once you’ve visited Illinois Institute of Technology, you’ll agree that our campus has a style all its own.
