Description

This report is produced annually by the Research Capacity Planning branch of Alberta Advanced Education and Technology. Data derived from the report are compiled and used as a performance measure in Measuring Up, a component of the Government of Alberta's Annual Report, and the Business Plan and Annual Report for the Ministry of Advanced Education and Technology (AET). The data collection process has been adjusted in order to provide and analyze data that are consistent with the overall sponsored research revenue totals reported by the institutions to the Canadian Association of University Business Officers (CAUBO). These institutions include Athabasca University, and the Universities of Alberta, Calgary and Lethbridge. Previous reports described a ten year span of historical data, but given requirements associated with restating the data in accordance with the new process, this report details a five year span of data.
