Abstract: | Technology transfer can take place in a wide variety of ways and at many levels. Nonetheless, the topic of technology transfer
between countries has hitherto dealt mainly with planned transfers, particularly from developed countries to either developing
countries or less-developed countries. This discussion first points out that technology transfer is not confined to the above
dyads; it then, more importantly, broadens the horizons of such transfers by touching on and elucidating the phenomenon of
random transfer of technology. In the process, it focuses on an important source of random technology transfer; namely, foreign
students studying in the U.S.
