Microsoft's new benefits: funding for college students to do intelligent networking devices in smart devices, smart wear, the Microsoft-IT information

This will be a new Microsoft Research Institute. In order to keep up with the rapid development of intelligent networking devices, Microsoft built an academic research institution for it alone.

Over the next 5 years, Microsoft, Washington University, Tsinghua University, the three institutions will cooperate, Microsoft's first batch of 40 million dollars for initial funding to build this new institution in the United States Seattle the first institutional building.

Starting from 1991, Microsoft in United States home and abroad to establish a variety of research institutions, to expand its technical strength. In Beijing and India has two Research Institute in Europe, Brazil and Israel have laboratories. They are often built around a hot technology, focused research studies, and this one is no exception.

A new institution named Center for global innovation Exchange (Global Innovative Exchange,GIX), in fact, is like a graduate incubator. It recruits students in the graduate school from top schools around the world, focusing on intelligent networking devices (Internet of Things) research and development.

This and other research institutions other Microsoft properties are different. Microsoft most is the employment of doctoral students in the past, engineers to do research, papers, while having the nature of academic institutions, but are both mature researchers. While the GIX is looking for those who have no graduate research experience. So can be understood as the Microsoft education begins earlier, in order to cultivate reserve force of the company.

As to why Microsoft Intelligent networked device is selected as the theme of the Research Center. United States technology industry Research Institute TechNovio according to reports published in March of this year, from 2015-2019, intelligent networked device markets at a compound annual growth rate of about 32% speed rapid development.
