Department of Dynamics of Science, Innovation and Environment

The objective of the department is to achieve a better and deeper understanding of the role played by science, technology and innovation in modern economies and societies, by developing our capabilities to map and measure -codified and tacit or embodied- scientific and technological knowledge, as well as to contribute to the construction of a “science of science policy”. Issues to be address are, among others, the transformation of research organisations and institutions as regards the processes of innovation, production, diffusion and transfer of knowledge, as well as the protection and appropiability of knowledge, as the social and political impact of new Technologies are issues associated to the emergence of new public goods and collective arenas; Researchers' labour markets and professional careers and analysis and evaluation of science, technology and higher education policies, and in broad terms relationships between science and governments.
