University Partnerships
SRNL has close working relationships with a variety of institutions of higher education and partners with the universities to achieve a broad range of research and development goals. The general purpose of these arrangements is to use the combined strengths of each institution to solve scientific and technical problems of mutual interest, and of interest to the Department of Energy and to develop a workforce pipeline of skilled research and technical staff that support both national laboratory and university programs.
On a day-to-day basis, SRNL works with numerous institutions and faculty members on cooperative projects across a wide spectrum of scientific inquiry. SRNL establishes partnering agreements such as Memorandums of Understanding, Work for Others agreements, Cooperative Research and Development Agreements, or other collaboration mechanisms to support SRNL-University research projects.
