Abstract

The evolution of the present relationships between the military establishment and the nation's universities in the performance of defense-related research and development is summarized. The present relationships and organizational concepts have their roots in the years immediately prior to World War II. The 25 years from the end of the war to 1970 were particularly significant in shaping today's military-university collaboration and cooperation. The Vietnam era and the high-inflation period of the 1970s created many problems for the established relationships; particularly troublesome were the antiwar sentiment on many campuses and the decision by certain universities to reject classified military research efforts. Renewed support of science and technology endeavors in the late 1970s brought about certain improvements in the military-academic environment; innovative initiatives in research and development administration in the 1980s have further improved these relationships. Representative problems and solutions and possible future directions of these very important relationships are reviewed and explored.
