NASA'S AMES RESEARCH CENTER, Moffett Field, Calif., and San Jose
State University (SJSU) have signed an agreement to establish the
Metropolitan Technology Center (MTC) at the center's NASA Research Park.
SJSU will act as the California State University system lead to develop
the MTC to foster research collaborations between Ames and the CSU system.
Such collaborations could include participation by SJSU graduate students
in NASA research and the formation of joint university/NASA research
teams. California officials said they expect the MTC to have a major
impact on the economic and social development of Silicon Valley. "Our goal
is to develop a world-class, shared-use [research and development] campus
by partnering with industry, academia and nonprofits in the NASA Research
Park," said Ames director Henry McDonald.
