  • Case Study: University of Surrey Increasing Collaborations and Helping Target Funding Bids by Using Scival and Scopus to Better Understand Research Strengths
    Research Intelligence Case Study: University of Surrey Increasing collaborations and helping target funding bids by using SciVal and Scopus to better understand research strengths. Elsevier’s Research Intelligence solutions combine quality, structured, interoperable data, advanced analytics and an array of indicators and metrics to provide research executives with key insights to address critical challenges and expand research excellence. “Effective internal and external communications around research expertise and technology transfer are critical to university success and decision making.” —Professor Carol Lane, University of Surrey Executive summary The University of Surrey received its royal charter in 1966 and has been awarded three Queen’s Anniversary Prizes for its research. In the 2014 UK Research Excellence Framework, 78% of the university’s research outputs were ranked as “world leading” or “internationally excellent”. Furthermore, in 2016, the university was named as The Sunday Times University of the Year. A major center for satellite and mobile communications research, the university owns Surrey Research Park, providing facilities for over 110 companies engaged in research. Seeking a greater understanding of their research strengths and profile, the university combined the data and analytics capabilities of SciVal and Scopus with faculty interviews and existing university research information to gain a more holistic view of the university’s research profile. This included a website aimed at improving communications around research activities and expertise, fostering collaborations and targeting funding opportunities more effectively. Background Effective internal and external may want to know which universities communications around research work in a specific medical indication expertise and technology transfer are like cancer imaging. Similarly, an critical to university success and engineering company may be interested decision making in these areas.
