“…On the methodological challenges ahead, we have identified a need to develop empirical research, and to move from local case studies to a more systematic comparative analysis. Recent initiatives of international data sets could provide better opportunities to analyse and construct better theories and understanding; among the initiatives we can mention OrgReg (Lepori 2020) or Research Organisation Registry (ROR) (https://ror.org).…”

This chapter addresses the relationship between public research organisations (PRO) and R&D public funding. The chapter focuses on the analysis of a diverse set of organisations that carry out R&D without having teaching as part of the core missions, which do not depend on companies or universities, and on which the Government exerts influence or control through various channels.The focus on which relevant dimension of government influence is relevant for categorisation has been changing from the administrative dependence or legal status, to their effective control, funding, or missions. Behind the PRO as a concept new dynamics are identifiable, especially the increasing diversity of sources of funding, the execution of public missions or the provision of public goods.The chapter examines the classifications of PRO, the role of funding in the typologies and the importance of considering the missions for understanding the increasing diversity of PRO. It also presents some plausible connections between different types of research funding and authority relations in different types of PRO.

“…A core feature of ETER is the introduction of stable organizational identifiers for HEIs, which are shared with the OrgReg register of public research organizations developed by the European Research Infrastructure in Science, Research and Innovation RISIS ( https://www.risis2.eu/registers-orgreg/ ) 18 . OrgReg also provides extensive information on linkages between HEIs and other entities, such as associated hospitals, and on demographic events 19 , which are highly relevant to interpret quantitative data 20 .…”

The European Tertiary Education Register (ETER) is the reference dataset on European Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). ETER provides data on nearly 3,500 HEIs in about 40 European countries, including descriptive information, geographical information, students and graduates (with various breakdowns), revenues and expenditures, personnel, and research activities; as of March 2023, data cover the years from 2011–2020. ETER complies with OECD-UNESCO-EUROSTAT standards for educational statistics; most data are collected from National Statistical Authorities (NSAs) or ministries of participating countries and are subject to extensive checks and harmonization. The development of ETER has been funded by the European Commission and is part of the current efforts to establish a European Higher Education Sector Observatory; it is closely connected to the establishment of a broader data infrastructure in the field of science and innovation studies (RISIS). The ETER dataset is widely used in the scholarly literature on higher education and science policy, as well as for policy reports and analyses.
