, Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Departments, as well as futureCollege of Health Sciences programs). One of the challenges facing newly appointed science and engineering facultyeverywhere is the proper development of their startup research portfolio based on: (1) thecombination of the skills and plans that the faculty member arrived with, and (2) local resourcesin joint facilities and in the labs of other established senior research faculty. The startup packageis a hallmark of the faculty support in well developed countries with the long academic andresearch tradition and strong links between industry and academia. This model, variations ofwhich can be found on a global scale from North American universities all the way to SouthKorea

In operation for some six years, its portfolio of investments is currentlyvalued at some $15-billion. Mubadala has, for example, purchased the chipmanufacturing facilities of AMD, and will be moving significant parts of that operation toAbu Dhabi as part of the initiative of developing high-tech manufacturing in the UAE. Italso is making investments in aerospace research and development, and partsmanufacture, in association with the major expansion of UAE airlines, including Etihadand Emirates.The Masdar initiative, spawned by Mubadala, includes three major thrusts: investmentsin alternative energy to initiate the
