==Research Paper==
Since university system file for patents out of a central office, its mot possible to determine where the research was conducted. This presents problems when ranking universities by patent production.
 
In order to publish this paper as a Baker Institute Research Report, we will need to do more to resolve this issue beyond weighting for the University of California.
 
==Carnegie Classifications==
We propose using public data from the Carnegie Classifications of Institutes of Higher Education to resolve the university systems issue.
 
TASKS:
1) Separate schools affiliated with universities/university systems in our rankings from all others included in Carnegie data.
 
2)Group these by system.
Determine the number of schools in each system
3) Determine their classification.
1 if Doctoral 0 if not (In Carnegie 2015 Basic Classification [BASIC2015] 15, 16, 17)
1 if 4-year medical school 0 if not (BASIC2015 25) Check (BASIC2015 26)
1 if 4-year engineering 0 if not (BASIC2015 27) Check (BASIC2015 28)
4) Determine the total count of the categories in number 3 for each university system.
 
5) Use total count to weight regressions
 
6) Create ranking tables that rank university systems and universities by dividing number of patents by number of doctoral, med-school, 4-year engineering.
==Project Overview==
Goal: list of all universities and # of patents associated with each university and patent licensingactivity
patent reassignment to startups associated with these universities

BOARD OF REGENTS - pretty much exclusively describes Universities
UNIVERSITY NOTES*overall ranking (total number of patents)*weight by faculty (people)*weight by research funding*weight by endowment (maybe)*public vs private*individuals: surname and first initial**ranking by inventors - also exclusively describes Universitieswho are the superstar inventors and where are they (define superstar inventor - idk 20 patents and rank universities by how many superstars are present**Herfindahl-Hirschmann Index
UNIVERITY ==Key Words== ===Universities (common misspellingPatent Assignees)===BOARD OF REGENTS - pretty much exclusively describes universities UNIVERSITY - also exclusively describes universities*Can we do a close match with University?

College Boulevard, college blvd, etc.*double check everything with College Park INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY - almost exclusively describes universities but sometimes describes external research institutes POLYTECHNIC - exclusively university (i.e. RPI, Virginia Tech)

How do we feel about affiliated, non===University-degree granting research institutes?Affiliated Startups (Patent Assignees)===
==What to get from other people==
Catherine has zip codes of medical centers, use to look through patent data
 
==Wish List==
 
*List of university-affiliated startups
*data about TTOs (# and quality of employees)

==To Do==
1. lit review *Create ranking**Based on patent portfolio**Licensing income**Quality of TTO **Publications (look at specifically based on research)?**Amount received in grants/Amount of grants - we have numbers on amount of NIH grants and NSF grants***NIH/NSF/STTR**Control for 1-2 daysschool size/endowment**Startups affiliated with university***Value generated from these startups? (ask Avesh), look for holistic picture, **Existence of entrepreneurship program**Geography *Describe average patent portfolio of university**Number of patents**Maybe categorize by research area?*Describe how universities license**USPTO earned revenue Deliverable*Ranking*Explanation of what hasmakes a good ranking/hasn’t been done? what are the questions people are askingfactors a school needs to be more successful Artifacts*Grant Data*Research Funding*Star Scientists*Regression with variables from Carnegie Classification (10-15 variables)*Licensing (?)
