USC Aims to Make Innovation Multidisciplinary
Multidisciplinary research is all the rage in college IT programs, and few institutions can now say they’re more committed to the principle than the University of Southern California. The university announced earlier this week that it will reimagine its Stevens Institute for Technology Commercialization, which turns campus engineering projects into marketable products, as a broader enterprise catering to all disciplines.
The Stevens Institute for Innovation, as it will now be called, should still spawn plenty of tech spinoffs. But the institute will also seek to promote work from USC’s media, social work, fine arts, and pharmacy programs, according to the Los Angeles Times. —Brock Read
