Research Transfer for Open Science
Learn to develop impactful research products within the university-industry-community framework for open science innovation.
Learn to develop impactful research products within the university-industry-community framework for open science innovation.
This course provides the foundation for understanding research products within the framework of university connections to business, government, community, and environment—key scenarios in open science and innovation. Structured in four components, the curriculum begins with theoretical concepts for those interested in applied research and solving concrete problems in communities, businesses, and organizations. Students will explore fundamental questions like "What is scientific knowledge transfer?" and "Why is it important to generate research with impact across different sectors of society?" The second component focuses on identifying trends and innovations in applied research projects, recognizing social or commercial problems that can be addressed through research results. The third section transitions to practical implementation, teaching students how to structure products or services that improve quality of life and benefit society through their transfer to communities, businesses, or institutions with community or commercial applications. The final component presents a case study for reflection on research results transfer within the open science framework. Throughout the course, participants will develop skills in innovation ecosystem frameworks, trend research, need identification, solution building, and product/service structuring, all oriented toward the new challenges that open science brings to society.

This course bridges the gap between academic research and practical application within the open science framework. The curriculum is structured into four interconnected components that guide learners from theoretical foundations to practical implementation. The first module introduces fundamental concepts of research transfer in the context of open science, exploring the role of universities, the nature of research, and the importance of connecting academic knowledge with societal needs. The second module equips students with strategies and tools for identifying needs and potential solutions, covering innovation environments, trend research methodologies, and various channels and typologies for knowledge transfer. The third module focuses on the practical development of Minimum Viable Products (MVPs), teaching students how to structure products or services, implement prototyping strategies, and conduct research with measurable impact. This section also covers measurement models to evaluate the effectiveness of knowledge transfer initiatives. The final component presents an applied case study that allows students to reflect on and integrate the concepts learned throughout the course. By completing this training, participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the research transfer process and develop practical skills to transform research findings into solutions that address real-world problems, all within the expanding framework of open science principles.
