L’analyse est particulièrement ciblée sur les effets que pourrait avoir la reconnaissance de la recherche appliquée dans le mandat des collèges. L’article s’appuie entre autres sur une enquête distribuée à près de 150 présidents de collèges et instituts de même que sur d’autres études très récentes. Pour conclure, des pistes de politiques de recherche sont mises en évidence afin de maximiser la contribution du secteur collégial à l’efficience du dossier national del’innovation.  \nIntroduction  \nIn the last forty years, a network of approximately 200 colleges was created in Canada to fulfill various roles related mostly to technical education, vocational training, and university entrance/transfer preparation. This trend was in response to a desire to bring technical, vocational, and post-secondary education closer to local communities and to an ever-increasing number of young and mature students. In midcourse, globalization emerged as a public policy imperative and began to challenge paradigms that had been designed solely for domestic purposes. The public at large started to link innovation with economic growth, and industrial/applied research with national productivity. As in many other countries, educational institutions took on new prominence. In popular parlance, they became “economic engines” for the advancement of Canada’s economic competitiveness in the international arena.  \nThe federal, provincial and territorial governments of Canada have made public a number of far-reaching goals to be attained by the year 2010 (Corkery, 2002a) . These include to achieve a place among the world’s top five countries in Research and Development performance; to develop at least ten internationally recognized technology clusters; to raise venture capital investments per capita to prevailing U.S. levels; and to bring the benefits of innovation to every part of the country – rural as well as urban.  \nThe Canadian Journal of Higher Education Volume XXXV, No. 2, 2005  \n| 02 Belanger 27-48 FINAL.indd 28 | | 11/9/2005 4:22:00 PM |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n\nNational Innovation and the Role of the College Sector 29  \nIt is estimated that these commitments will require R&D investments of $48B ($26B more than originally projected) by 2010, and a cadre of 180 000 research scientists, engineers, and technicians (50 000 more than the original target) . In anticipation the Government has staged more than thirty national innovation summits to speak to the education, business and academic leaders in their respective communities.  \nThe Canadian economy in its present state displays both singular characteristics and particular challenges. Corporate ownership in Canada by Canadians has been described as ‘oligarchic’(e.g., Taylor, ","cbCaimKDgAPzT4h0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimKDgAPzT4h0","pdf",121814,22,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Innovation and economic competitiveness\n## National goals and investment requirements\n## Canada’s innovation challenges\n## Applied research participation and OECD perspectives","[{\"question\":\"What role do colleges play in national innovation according to the paper?\",\"answer\":\"The paper argues that colleges can strengthen Canada’s innovation capacity by taking on a larger role in applied research within an expanded institutional mandate.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the paper assess the readiness of the college sector?\",\"answer\":\"It uses results from a survey distributed to about 150 college and institute presidents in Canada, supported by other recent studies.\"},{\"question\":\"What policy directions does the paper propose?\",\"answer\":\"It ends by suggesting policy avenues intended to maximize how effectively the college sector contributes to Canada’s national innovation agenda.\"}]","National Innovation and the Role of the College Sector - read online free | PDF",1792084682,55]
