==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 licensing activity
Julia: focus on patent counts
 
Working in E:McNair/University Patents
'''3/20-3/24'''
Patent Counts
*Jeemin is a savior, matched and counted 128,000 entries (Jeemin_matcher_matched.txt), manually went through the 6,000 unmatched (Jeemin_matcher_unmatched.txt), Check [[University Patent Matching]]
*Ranking for all time is in Patent Counting ( >Total (All Time) )
*Need to talk with Meghana about grant data
*Finish all of above
*Start drafting
*Load data onto database-> E:McNair/University Patents/unidatajoin.sql in univ (database)
