AUCC PublicationsMomentum: The 2005 report on university research and knowledge transfer
Momentum begins by providing an overview of the evolution of the Canadian R&D system’s financing, with particular emphasis on the nature of investments that have flowed to the university sector. It goes on to take a closer look at the progress achieved to date as a result of these investments and also outlines some of the remaining challenges that must be addressed if Canada is to reap the rewards of increased research capacity and remain internationally competitive. Finally, Momentum brings to light how Canadian university research – from developing new drugs and medical treatments to major advances in clean energy technologies – results in benefits that serve our communities, Canada and the world.
