Twelve information technology companies have agreed to work with Carnegie Mellon and NASA to develop the consortium and its agenda. Last January the university signed a memorandum of understanding with NASA establishing a partnership to explore the creation of a branch campus at Moffett Field. NASA is developing this site as a research park. He said the goal of current planning is to create a suitable platform, including classrooms, laboratory space and housing that would allow any department of the university to run a program there at reasonable cost. Initially, the facility would be used for research with NASA, executive education programs, electronic commerce courses, computer science, robotics and software engineering.
