CSC implemented the strategy of “open innovation”. By establishing
“Engineering Research Center”, “Joint Research Laboratory” and organizing “Major league of
industry
and academia” CSC made good use of various external resources. Collaborated with industry,
academia
and research organizations in Taiwan, CSC successfully extended research capabilities and
resources,
expanded R&D horizons, expediting R&D efficiency,
rooted deeply the basic and application researches
as well as upgraded industry technologies and
high value products.
CSC upheld open innovative idea, hence entrusted numerous researches to academia and R & D sectors. In recent years, in order to extend the depth and scope of R&D projects, the outsourcing researches were gradually transformed from previous individual professor to team cooperation of universities and professors. With the integrated clustering professional capabilities the researches will be executed more systematically and achievements will be accomplished multiply. Hence, CSC collaborated with academic and R & D sectors to establish "Engineering Research Center (ERC)" and introduced external research capabilities. Recently, CSC has established eight research centers, i.e. "Electric Motor Technology", "Physical Properties and Microstructure of Metals", "Steel Structures", "Advanced Steel Microstructure Control", “Value-added Heightening of Metal Industry” , "Advanced Hand Tools", “Advanced Special Alloys” ,and “Forging and Roll Forming”, in National Cheng Kung University, National Sun Yat-sen University, National Taiwan University of Science and Technology, National Taiwan University, Metal Industries Research and Development Centre, National Yunlin University of Science and Technology, National Tsing Hua University, and National Kaohsiung University of Application Science and Technology respectively. In addition, "Automobile Forming", "Smelting" and "Rolling", three more research centers will be planned to set up successively in the near future in National Taiwan University, National Cheng Kung University and National Chung Cheng University.
