While through our collective experience we have determined many positive reasons to consider partnering with industry, we also present areas of caution to consider when engaging with external partners for a learning experience. The two initiatives discussed in this paper are a school outreach programme that partners a university, industry, and school systems in the United States (Programme A) and a capstone integrated civil engineering design project that partners a university and nearby engineering firms in the United Kingdom. Despite the disparate nature of these programmes, we found points of comparison in consideration of the industry partnership aspect that they share. date: 2019-12-01 date_type: published publisher: Royal Academy of Engineering official_url: https://hefocus.raeng.org.uk/events/uk-ireland-7th-engineering-education-research-network-annual-symposium/ oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1732088 lyricists_name: Ford, James lyricists_name: Gillen, Andrew lyricists_id: JRFOR76 lyricists_id: AGILL46 actors_name: Austen, Jennifer actors_id: JAUST66 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public series: annual symposium of the UK & Ireland engineering education research network place_of_pub: Warwick, UK event_title: 7th annual symposium of the UK & Ireland engineering education research network event_location: Warwick University institution: 7th annual symposium of the UK & Ireland engineering education research network book_title: Proceedings of the 7th annual symposium of the UK & Ireland engineering education research network citation: Gillen, A; Ford, J; Grohs, J; (2019) Partnering with industry: Practical considerations from two programmes (practice paper).
