Collaborations with <strong>MIT</strong> Campus<br />
and Other Universities<br />
Programs<br />
Advanced Concepts Committee<br />
The <strong>Lincoln</strong> <strong>Laboratory</strong> Advanced Concepts Committee<br />
(ACC) supports the development of innovative concepts<br />
that address important technical problems of national<br />
interest. Collaborative efforts between <strong>Lincoln</strong> <strong>Laboratory</strong><br />
and research universities are encouraged. The ACC provides<br />
seed funding, as well as technical and programmatic<br />
support, to investigators with new technology ideas.<br />
Integrated Photonics Initiative<br />
A unique collaboration between <strong>Lincoln</strong> <strong>Laboratory</strong><br />
and the <strong>MIT</strong> campus is the Integrated Photonics<br />
Initiative (IPI), a multiyear, <strong>Laboratory</strong>-funded effort<br />
that enhances the research experience for PhD candidates<br />
working on integrated photonics devices<br />
and subsystems for potential insertion into advanced<br />
communications systems. The <strong>Laboratory</strong>’s specialized<br />
facilities and expertise in applied research add<br />
another dimension to the students’ thesis development.<br />
Monthly IPI status meetings rotating between the<br />
<strong>Laboratory</strong> and the campus foster interaction between<br />
the students, <strong>Laboratory</strong> staff, and campus faculty.<br />
