Abstract
Industry-academia collaboration largely depends on the way the nexus is defined as well as the extent of formalization of the relationship. The process of teaching and learning are a lot better when there is a concerted unison of research and knowledge transfer from the higher institutions to the industry and vice versa. Jointly organized course-based and project-based teaching collaborations have become increasingly crucial in guaranteeing that the student benefits from both sides of the theoretical and practical divide. This paper presents a review of research literature on the possible industry-academia success factors and seeks to highlight avenues through which this bond can be better strengthened. In a bid to close this lacuna between academia and industry, infusing industry experts to supervise research projects on one hand and improving teaching methods via curricula improvement on the other hand will prove beneficial. Keywords: Industry-Academia collaboration; teaching; engineering education; joint-based research; curriculum development.
