University-Industry-Government Collaboration
Qualitative and quantitative study
 
Description 294-303
The purpose of this study is to connect the perceptions and understanding of the collaboration of faculty members of
NIRF ranked top-performing engineering institutes with the publication they have. The quantitative bibliometric analysis
along with the enquiry with authors show that national collaboration, mainly with academic authors of same or other
institution, still is a preferred. Despite international collaboration leading to more average citations, there is no significant
gain seen. Scholars collaborate for many reasons, but mostly to gain popularity among peers or to receive citation benefits.
Collaboration with private or government organizations, although uncommon, is primarily used to test newly developed
ideas or to provide consultancy. Most of the respondents believe that funding is important for research collaborations and
low commitment of team members to the shared goal is a major barrier in collaboration. We argue that as the share of
University-Industry-Government research collaborations is low, a strong congruence between knowledge capital and
entrepreneurial capital is needed to develop an entrepreneurial university.
