==Technology Innovation Program==

{{update|date=May 2008}}<!-- The Technology Innovation Program (TIP) is a cooperative educational venture between the Department of Chemical Engineering and the School of Business at Queen's University at Kingston, Canada. First incorporated into the curriculum of senior year business and chemical engineering students in the 1994–1995 school year, TIP provides an invaluable opportunity for these students to work together in multi‐disciplinary teams on real projects for industry clients. An academically rigorous exercise, TIP uses non‐traditional instructional means such as problem‐based learning, multi‐disciplinary teams, and self‐directed project work to create a learning environment paralleling that of the professional engineer or business person. Although it is still evolving, the Technology Innovation Program provides a model for other educational ventures seeking to bridge engineering and business, and to establish valuable links between the university and industry, while simultaneously easing the graduating student's transition into the workplace. -->

A new, successor program was enacted called the NIST Technology Innovation Program (TIP). TIP was established for the purpose of assisting U.S.&nbsp;businesses and institutions of higher education or other organizations, such as national laboratories and nonprofit research institutes, to support, promote, and accelerate innovation in the United States through high-risk, high-reward research in areas of critical national need.
