The Centre for Science, Technology & Innovation Policy (CSTI) is an applied policy research unit exploring what makes national innovation systems effective at translating new science and engineering R&D into novel technologies, industries and economic wealth.

Research  projects are designed to support the evidence needs of science, technology and innovation (STI) policymakers, who are responsible for programme design, portfolio management and strategy development. The CSTI research agenda is shaped in collaboration with policy and research agency partners.

 A brief outline of our research approach can be found here.

CSTI’s research projects are organised within three closely integrated research themes.
