The center for information protection (CIP) is a National Science Foundation Industry/University Cooperative Research Center (I/U CRC). The National Science Foundation's I/U CRC program is effecting positive change in the performance capacity of the U.S. industrial enterprise. Over the past two decades, the I/U CRCs have led the way to a new era of partnerships between universities and industry, featuring high-quality, industrially relevant fundamental collaboration in research and education, and direct transfer of university-developed ideas, research results, and technology to U.S. industry to improve its competitive posture in world markets. Through innovative education of talented graduate and undergraduate students, the I.U CRCs are providing the next generation of scientists and engineers with a broad, industrially oreinted persepective on engineering research and practice.
