Exzellenzstrategie
September 13th, 2007
… the Austrian Council for Research and Technology Development has recently published its strategy towards excellence. To be downloaded at www.rat-fte.at.
Amongst others, the study argues for more excellence on the “top” and more quality with respect to the “breadth”. I.e., additional support for the best (institutes) and more average quality mostly through improvements in methods and processes for the average research institute.
This is somehow natural, as the strive towards the “3.0% target” requires more research and the same time this implies that some researchers need to be “extra-excellent” as otherwise the average would decrease (too much – avoiding a decrease in average will IMHO be hard to achieve).
