Most companies support graduate student research by simply giving
money and then checking back every year or so to find out what (if anything)
had been done with their funds. Not Intel. Intel assigns internal
employees to interact directly with the students they fund, as well as
the students’ professors. In 1999, in addition to thirty-one full-time assignees,
eighty-seven voluntary “mentors” at Intel are assigned to students.
In this way, students have access to a senior Intel manager in an
area related to their research. Additionally, the Intel managers have an
122 Open Innovation
additional window onto current leading-edge research in areas of interest
to them. The arrangement also gives these graduate students the
chance to get to know Intel, and vice versa. Frequently, this relationship
leads to new hiring by Intel.
