(R) = rolling averages (e.g. average scores across 2007–2010, 2008–2011… 2014–2017) have been used to measure performance and growth due to pronounced short-term fluctuations. Refer to the “Annex: Guide to reading the quantitative results tables (country snapshots)” for guidance in interpreting the data presented above. Further information on the presented indicators is available in the 2018 ERA Monitoring Handbook. 1 Country profile: Denmark COUNTRY NARRATIVE Summary The Danish research system displayed its best performances on Priority 1 (More effective national research systems). The three scores calculated here put the country well above the ERA average (Cluster 1) and the EU-28 benchmarks for all indicators. Denmark has been slowly losing some of its lead on other EU-28 countries for two of these three indicators, however. In a second set of Priorities, Denmark’s performances were mostly above (Cluster 2) ERA average, with one indicator well above (Cluster 1) the ERA average. Three priorities fit this description for Denmark: Priority 2b (Make optimal use of public investments in research infrastructures); Priority 5b (Open access); Priority 6 (International collaboration). In Priority 2b, Denmark has lost ground to the Member States overall since the last ERA monitoring exercise, whereas in Priority 5b and Priority 6, Denmark’s trajectories in recent years have been more closely in line with trends at the EU-28 level. In the remaining four priorities, Denmark had at least one score that was just below the ERA average (Cluster 3), but also scores above or well above the ERA average. These included Priority 2a (Transnational cooperation); Priority 3 (An open labour market for researchers); Priority 4 (Gender equality and gender mainstreaming in research); and Priority 5a (Knowledge transfer). While Denmark showed progress on a number of indicators, there were also some specific spots where trajectories were less encouraging, which will be discussed in the individual priority sections below. Denmark had no performances that would have positioned among countries with scores well below ERA average (Cluster 4). To the extent that data was available, below the country profile also analyses progress with the implementation of the ERA National Action Plan. The overall assessment of Denmark’s implementation of its NAP is positive. It achieved progress under most of the priorities but some of the proposed actions and objectives lacked concrete indicators and timelines. The most substantial progress was achieved under sub priority 2a. Denmark took numerous actions to maintain its high level of participation in Horizon 2020. These actions include the establishment of a Strategic Reference Group, mapping the Danish participation in H2020, publishing report ‘Evaluations and evaluators in Horizon 2020’ and continuously providing support and advice on H2020. Another important development happened under Priority 1. RESEARCH 2025 catalogue was published by the Ministry of Higher Education and Science. It will guide the country’s strategic investments from the perspective of the private sectors, knowledge institutions and governmental bodies. Denmark has also taken some actions to further the objective set under sub priority 5b that include publishing of a new National Strategy for Open and monitoring the progress of open access. Opening of Sino-Danish Centre for Education and Research in Beijing, adoption of the Arctic and Cluster 2.0. strategies have marked the Danish progress under Priority 6. 1. More effective national research systems On Priority 1 (More effective national research systems), Denmark displayed its best performances. The three scores calculated here put the country well above the ERA average (Cluster 1) and the EU-28 benchmarks. This was particularly true for the headline indicator, the Adjusted Research Excellence Indicator (AREI). Here, the country’s score was almost 79, compared to 45 for the Member States overall. The country’s performance on the headline indicator has also increased at a yearly rate higher than that of the EU-28 trend, extending Denmark’s lead. Between 2013 and 2016, Denmark’s CAGR on this indicator was 7.1 %, compared to a trend of 3.2 % for the EU-28. Denmark has been slowly losing some of its lead on other EU-28 countries for the two complementary indicators (GBARD as a share of GDP, and the Summary Innovation Index), however. Denmark is a high performer with a strong research system, which produces high quality scientific outputs (Christensen J.L., Christensen, P., Knudsen, 2017). However, its performance could be further improved in terms of innovations. In 2014, Innovation Fund Denmark (IFD) was established with the aim to make R&D funding more efficient and effective while focusing on challenge-driven research and innovation. It is a result of a merger between the Danish National 2 Country profile: Denmark Advanced Technology Foundation, the Danish Council for Strategic Research, and parts of the Danish Council for Technology and Innovation.

  • Case Studies
    JUNE 1, 2015 Education, Research and Open Access in Denmark PASTEUR4OA PROJECT CRISTIN Jens H. Aasheim, Nina Karlstrøm Education, Research and Open Access in Denmark Education, Research and Open Access in Denmark The following is a short presentation of the education system, research and Open Access in Denmark. As regional coordinator for the Nordic region, CRIStin (Current Research Information System in Norway) was asked to write a case study of Denmark. This study is based in large on data and statistics provided by the Danish Key Node, Anne Sandfær, and the Danish Ministry of Higher Education and Science. Summary As one of the countries to focus on Open Access quite early, Denmark was off to a head start. E.g. the Danish government appointed an Open Access Committee to recommend steps on how to implement the transition to Open Access. But progress has been time-consuming. However, several of the suggested recommendations have already been, or are now being implemented. National policies, joint policies for the Danish Research Councils and tools for monitoring Open Access output are some examples. The main focus of the Danish Open Access effort has been directed towards repositories, depositing and the so called green route. The research and scholarly communication system of the country Denmark has a population of 5.6 million, 7.5% of which have a university/college level education of five years or more. There has been a steady increase in output of the Danish research education programs, from over 1200 finished PhDs in 2009 to over 1600 in 2012. These graduate from one of the 8 universities, 7 university colleges or 4 university hospitals in Denmark.

  • Does Openness and Open Access Policy Relate to the Success of Universities?
    Information Services & Use 33 (2013) 87–91 87 DOI 10.3233/ISU-130707 IOS Press Extended abstract Does openness and open access policy relate to the success of universities? Pekka Olsbo Jyväskylä University Library, Jyväskylä, Finland E-mail: pekka.olsbo@jyu.fi Abstract. This study takes a closer look at the Ranking Web of Universities and Ranking Web of Repositories rankings and tries to examine if there is a connection between these two rankings. Study is done by analyzing the success of University of Jyväskylä and the institutional repository JyX of the University in these rankings. Comparison shows that the JyX archive plays an important role in University’s success especially when analyzing the presence and openness of the University. By analyzing the success of eight European countries in these rankings and cross reading these findings with the development of relative citation impact shown in a report by the Finnish Academy, some interesting common trends can be seen. The same three countries Finland, Denmark and Norway seem to be on their way up in all comparisons. Open Access activities in these countries can be seen as one explaining factor. Keywords: Institutional repositories, Jyx, open access, open access policy, openness, Ranking Web of Repositories, Ranking Web of Universities, University of Jyväskylä, university rankings 1. Introduction The cross reading and examination of the report The state of scientific research in Finland 2012 by The Finnish Academy and Ranking Web of Universities seem to show that there could be a connection be- tween the internet visibility, ranking and the relative citation impact of universities in different countries.
