What could go wrong with turning universities in money making machines?
- kuschku 9y agoThe research institutes are entirely separate from the teaching part of the universities, funded entirely separate (which is why nothing of this is counted in university rankinds). And this decision was done intentionally. There's also research societies that work without any income (Max Planck, Leibniz, Helmholtz), but the whole point of the Fraunhofer society is to take science and turn it into something that companies can apply, use, and would pay for.
