<h2> University technology transfer function </h2>

Branham Innovation Center <><>The Branham Innovation Center (BIC) provides a machine shop, welding station, conference rooms, and innovation space for teams to work and construct projects. The building is not available to students that are not on these teams and self-projects are not permitted.

Rose-Hulman Ventures~~~~Rose-Hulman Ventures provides internship experience for students year-round. The internships are focused on enhancing students' problem solving skills. The facility has a wet lab, fabrication shop, welding station, and software available. Students are encouraged to pursue self-projects with the approval of a project manager.

"We have people at Ventures working on cool projects and programs, and a lot of our engineering curriculum focuses on problem solving and thinking a few steps ahead of the game. I've heard a bit about entrepreneurship, and there are probably a few classes devoted to the entrepreneurial spirit, but I don't see that stressed as much as innovation." -R.H.I.T. Chemical Engineer, Senior
