Avec l¿émergence de la «nouvelle économie» basée sur les nouvelles technologies de l¿information et de la communication, les connaissances scientifiques et technologiques deviennent plus que jamais l¿objet d¿enjeux économiques et sociaux. Les hautes écoles sont alors appelées à se mettre davantage au service de la société, en particulier des industries de haute technologie. Sont-elles prêtes à relever ce défi? Quels sont les facteurs favorisant ou restreignant leur coopération avec l¿industrie? Quel est le rôle de l¿Etat dans ce processus? Le présent volume fait la lumière sur la coopération entre les hautes écoles et l¿industrie dans le processus de création de connaissances et son évolution dans le temps, en se focalisant sur le développement des microsystèmes en Suisse romande. En observant comment les activités de recherche et développement s¿organisent sur le terrain, l¿ouvrage identifie les canaux formels et informels de relations entre les hautes écoles et l¿industrie des microsystèmes et détermine les facteurs favorisant les synergies entre les différents acteurs engagés dans ce domaine de même que les freins éventuels à la coopération. Il aborde également le rôle des pouvoirs publics dans ce processus et évalue l¿impact des différents programmes publics de recherche (par exemple le programme prioritaire MINAST) sur la coopération entre les hautes écoles et l¿industrie.
