Resumen
Universities And Third Mission Policies In The United Kingdom: A Framework For The Discussion Of The Proposed Indicators In The Manual De Valencia. Rev. iberoam. cienc. tecnol. soc. [online]. 2017, vol.12, n.34, pp.95-110. ISSN 1850-0013.
In the context of the elaboration of the Manual de Indicadores de Vinculación de la Universidad con el Entorno Socioeconómico -or Manual de Valencia-, this paper offers a review of third mission policies as they have been developed in the United Kingdom for the last three decades. This country was the first to implement a system of financial incentives on the basis of an annual survey for the universities that carry out third mission activities. The aim of this paper is to offer a frame of reference for the ongoing efforts being developed in Ibero-America regarding the promotion, measurement and checking of third mission activities in its universities. One of our main conclusions is the need to design a system of indicators comprehensive enough for the universities to be able to reflect upon the variety of third mission activities in which they are engaged, regardless of how quantifiable are their results
