SANCHEZ-TORRES, Jenny Marcela  and  RIVERA TORRES, Sandra Carolina. A model for measuring research capacity using an intellectual capital-based approach in a colombian higher education institution. Innovar [online]. 2009, vol.19, suppl.1, pp.179-197. ISSN 0121-5051.

This article's main objective was to present a model for measuring research capacity from an intellectual capital-based approach for Colombian higher education institutions (Instituciones de Educación Superior - IES), forming part of the national science and technology system, in the sense that around 90% of Colombian research groups belong to it. The model should lead to identifying IES capacity and competence and to strengthening these institutions' management ability with the aim of obtaining input facilitating designing and formulating science, technology and innovation policy. Likewise, it should contribute towards strengthening IES relationships within national and international public and private settings.

Keywords : innovation management; national innovation system; higher education; organisation; research system; intellectual capital; human capital; social capital; structural capital.
