Figures on science and research
The ‘Figures on science and research’ section shows information on research funding, human resources as well as publication activities and scientific impact in Finland. The section also includes comparisons between Finland and the EU and OECD countries, for instance.
The information is based on statistics from Vipunen - Education Statistics Finland, statistics from Statistics Finland and data from the Finnish Immigration Service. The international comparison uses OECD statistics and the European Union’s CORDIS service. The section on publication activities and scientific impact utilises data from the Web of Science publication database maintained by Clarivate Analytics.
The section has been produced collaboratively by the Ministry of Education and Culture, the Academy of Finland, and CSC – IT Center for Science. The page is under constant development and the statistics are updated annually.
The Finnish national guide to publication metrics can be used to support the responsible interpretation and use of the figures of publication activities and scientific impact. The guide contains basic information on the responsible use of publication metrics’ methods and tools. Finn-ARMA's publication metrics network is responsible for the contents of the guide.
