Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Toronto (Canada), 2008.

This item must not be sold to any third party vendors.

This thesis is concerned with the strategic management of research in research intensive universities (RIUs). RIUs have a huge economic footprint and research is at their core. Competition for the funds that support research is fierce, and RIUs must increasingly engage in strategic activities to maximize their share of the available research funding.

520 $a This thesis is concerned with the strategic management of research in research intensive universities (RIUs). RIUs have a huge economic footprint and research is at their core. Competition for the funds that support research is fierce, and RIUs must increasingly engage in strategic activities to maximize their share of the available research funding.
520 $a Widely accepted portfolio theories underpin a quantitative model that exposes the research strategies of a group of 39 RIUs and measures the results of their strategies in terms of the change in the share of federally funded research expenditures they performed during the decade that ended in 2000. It was determined that there was a .62 correlation between the RIU research strategies and the corresponding change in their share of federally funded research expenditures. A modified specialization strategy was most closely associated with the greatest gain in share, and any RIU that does not pursue this strategy does so at its peril. The ideal strategy is the most efficient in the sense that it represents a research portfolio configuration that generated the highest rate of growth in the value of research performed among the 39 RIUs.
520 $a For the first time, an RIU can determine the exact dollar value of research that it should perform in each of its research portfolio components in order to achieve the ideal portfolio configuration. When all RIU portfolio configurations, or when a peer group of RIU portfolio configurations, are viewed, environmental opportunities or threats may become apparent. In addition, the new research-related performance indicators introduced in this thesis enhance the ability to measure research operations. Improved measurement capability enhances both research accountability and institutional accountability.
520 $a This thesis contributes to the literature pertaining to the management of research in higher education and, more generally, to the literature related to the efficacy of strategy.
