The Industrial Advisory Committee is comprised of high-level executives and managers from various industries that have close links to Herrick Labs. Each year, the members of the committee review the Herrick Labs’ operations over the previous year and meet with the students to learn about current projects.

They also advise the faculty and the Director on future plans and facilitate the development of research partnerships between industry partners and Herrick Labs.

The IAC Meeting also provides an opportunity for IAC Members to interact with Herrick students during the poster show. Students are able to showcase their research and discuss it with their peers as well as IAC Members.
