An evaluation of collaborative research in a college of engineering
A data collection method is used to obtain researchers both in-progress and completed collaborative outputs. The data is collected to analyze researchers communication and multiple collaborative output networks. This study demonstrates how and to what extent the presence of a communication tie from one researcher to another increases the likelihood of forming a collaborative output tie in researchers collaborative networks. (e.g., network of joint publications, grant proposals, and patents).
