- Abstract
The authors present an analysis of the relationship between research and teaching in universities. The aim is to determine to what extent this relationship is strong enough to support the idea that teaching and research should be analyzed together from an institutional evaluation point of view. Two main questions are presented: (a) should research be evaluated from an institutional point of view? And, if so, (b) which specific aspects of research activities can be evaluated within each institution? Empirical data have been obtained within the Spanish National Program for the Evaluation of Quality of Universities and there are supplemented by interviews. Evidence is found of strong connections between research and teaching and in particular areas analysis of the two dimensions together will help in designing better improvement strategies for universities.
