The State of European University-Business Cooperation
This report presents the finding of a fifteen and a half month study on the cooperation between Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) and public and private organisations in Europe.
Authors: Professor Todd Davey, Dr Thomas Baaken, Victoria Galan Muros, Arno Meerman
Publication date: 2011
The key questions addressed in the study were:
How extensive is university-business cooperation (UBC) in European HEIs?
Why do some academics and HEIs engage in UBC and not others?
If situational factors are only part of the explanation for UBC activity, what else can help to explain total European UBC?
This study was repeated again in 2017. Read the more recent report.
