| Summary: | Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) research techniques and results are fundamental to the development of industrial innovation. Given the increasingly profound connection between innovation, science, and mathematical sciences, it is natural to inquire whether the interface between these three activities is functioning in an optimal way via STEM teachings and researches. We believe that these STEM teachings and researches are somewhat strengthened and essentially driven by industrial mathematics. However, due to the nature of industrial mathematics as an enabling technology for the new industry, its contribution is rarely visible in the final product that industry delivers. This paper will present the current scenario of this interface in Malaysia and to suggest mechanisms for intensifying the connection between industrial mathematics and industry. In particular we explore the degree of rapport between academia and industry, the contemporary trends in teachings and researches in the industrial mathematics, and to share the world wide experiences of the mutually beneficial relationship between industrial mathematicians and related STEM researchers in academia and industry. The paper will showcase the specific problem solving in collaboration with academics and industry practitioners during the Malaysian MISG 2011, 2014 and 2015. |
