The R&D&I Capacity Assessment is an institutional diagnostic tool designed to evaluate the research, development, and innovation capabilities of researchers. This assessment identifies strengths, gaps, and opportunities for improvement in areas such as academic training, scientific output, bibliometric impact, intellectual property, and transfer potential, making it a strategic tool for guiding decision-making and for more effectively leveraging CEDIA to strengthen institutional research.
How does it work?
The diagnosis groups the benefits of CEDIA according to the R&D&I value chain, considering the maturity of research capabilities:
-
Boost to R&D&I: Focused on ideation and research activities in their initial phases.
-
Knowledge generation: Focused not only on strengthening knowledge, but also on catalyzing the development of innovative solutions to problems and promoting collaboration.
-
Research results management: Focused on fostering innovation and linkage between academia and other sectors such as industry and the community in general.
-
Transfer of research results: Focused on essential transfer and dissemination activities, facilitating the connection between research and its practical applications, contributing significantly to technological progress and social welfare.
Benefits:
For researchers and academic units:
-
Identify opportunities to strengthen researchers' capabilities in their scientific output and impact.
-
To guide actions for improvement in intellectual property and scientific visibility.
For institutions:
- Strengthen the strategic management of research, development and innovation.
- Prioritize support, mentoring, and services that enhance the quality and impact of scientific production.
- Having inputs to align research with institutional objectives and with PEDI indicators.
