The transfer of experience of university–industry cooperation from those countries where it has become established to countries at earlier stages of the learning curve is a matter of increasing importance. In this article, John Kelly distils the experience of cooperation in northern Europe and, to a lesser extent, in the USA, into a framework for establishing a successful university–industry programme. He identifies the principal elements of cooperation between industry and higher education as cooperative teaching, enterprise development, contract research, and campus companies, and then sets out a suggested organizational and management structure.
