A Review of National University Research Evaluation and Funding Systems

2011-09-15 , Hicks, Diana

This paper aims to provide an overview of performance-based funding systems for public research in research intensive universities. It explores the types of performance-based funding systems in use, their rationale, goals and features. The design and administration of the systems is also examined, specifically, the level of consultation and negotiation that takes place with the tertiary institutions, and how the funding systems interact with other facets of the funding environment. Finally the paper explores the arguments that have emerged for and against the different types of funding systems, and whether any consensus is emerging as to a state-of-the-art system.

Systemic Data Infrastructure for Innovation Policy

2011-09-17 , Hicks, Diana

Progress on the vision laid out in the Science of Science Policy Roadmap requires a move to system level thinking and analysis in the study of technology development. System level analysis will require systemic data infrastructure. The need for such an infrastructure is increasingly explicitly recognized at the national level. This paper will review infrastructure efforts including previous US-based infrastructure, national research documentation systems used in systemic evaluations, the Community Innovation Survey in Europe, Lattes in Brazil, the NRC ranking of US graduate programs. The strengths and weaknesses of each approach will be compared, and key issues will be identified.
