IL/IN Science and Technology in the Pacific Century
 
 
  The Illinois/Indiana Title VI East Asia National Resource Center Consortium theme is Extending Professional Knowledge. One of our joint 4-year projects, with learning, teaching, and outreach components, is the Science and Technology in the Pacific Century (STIP) initiative. STIP builds on Illinois’ national profile in agriculture and engineering, and Indiana’s in the biological and information sciences to consider the impact of East Asia Science and technology on business and society in both East Asia and the United States.

In Year 1 (06-07) of the STIP project, each campus held steering committee meetings to discuss directions the project will take on that campus, potential areas of collaboration for both campuses, and strategies for raising funds from outside sources. In Year 2 (07-08), EAPS will team up with the University of Illinois Center for Advanced Study (CAS) for a year-long initiative on the U of Illinois campus (click here for more information). In Year 3 (08-09) EAPS and EASC will jointly conduct a national seminar on STIP topics to be determined in Years 1 and 2. Year 4 (09-10) will be a year of reflection and determining what, if any, future directions this project might take.
