CITRS is an open initiative. We will invite and expect to include several others to the initial group. Our objective is to develop partnerships of academe, government and industry as a multi-disciplinary generator of knowledge and products through the development.
CITRS is a group of people with
- complementary skills,
- a shared purpose,
- performance goals, and
- an approach to work
- to which they are mutually committed.
