Abstract
ARECHAVALA VARGAS, Ricardo. Las universidades y el desarrollo de la investigación científica y tecnológica en México: Una agenda de investigación. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2011, vol.40, n.158, pp.41-57. ISSN 0185-2760.
The university rhetoric portends scientific research as one of its substantive functions, few institutions translate this into the actual allocation of resources. The benchmarks published refer only to teaching. Thus, knowledge on how to develop the role of research in public universities is scant and institutional decisions in the area happen in a vacuum. We present an overview of these issues and propose a tentative research agenda to develop studies leading to cumulative knowledge that could enable to inform and support management decisions in higher education aimed at lifting research out of the standstill it is in.
Keywords : Scientific Research; Resource allocation; Science and Technology; Substantive role.
