== Tactic #3: Transformation of the Clemson University Office of Technology Transfer <br/> == *Description: The purpose of a technology transfer office is to facilitate innovation from laboratory to commercialization. This is fostered by various techniques, a benchmark of which is still to be established. One tactic to raise the bar for technoogy transfer offices across the country is to establish a mentorship relationship between current I&E students and their university technology transfer office. This could be facilitated through work-shops, seminars, How-To sessions. All of these outlets generate learning experiences and shine a positive light on the technology transfer office, an entity who, if they facilitate technology development throughout all stages, will clearly be seen as facilitating innovation from laboratoty to commercialization.*Team Leader: Sarah Helms (current BioE Master's candidate), Elizabeth Perpall, Chief Technology Transfer Officer, Clemson University Research Foundation (CURF)*Milestones:**Set goals with students (What would they like to see from their OTT?)- Fall 2013 through Spring 2014**Set goals with OTT (What would they like to see from their students?)- Fall 2013 through Spring 2014***Setting these goals with both parties sets expectations and responsibilities with each party**Negotiate goals- Spring 2014**Set Measurable Standards- Summer 2014**Facilitate Student-OTT Interactions- Fall 2014**Select and Prepare OTT speakers- Fall 2014**OTT Seminars (re-curring event)- Fall 2014**Prepare Work-Shop Attendance List- Winter 2014**OTT Work-Shops (re-curring event)- Spring 2015**Generate Awareness of How-To Sessions- Spring 2015**Accept Applications- Spring 2015**Verify Applications- Spring 2015**Select Teams- Spring 2015**OTT How-To Sessions (recurring event)- Spring 2015
