Indicators of science and technology in the research process, innovation and entrepreneurship of the UNAN-MANAGUA

Abstract

The research process, innovation and entrepreneurship are linked in the higher education institutions whose nature is associated to human development and the production of new knowledge. At the National Autonomous University of Nicaragua, UNAN-Managua, CTI-ES processes are developed, guided by its Institutional Strategic Plan 2015-2019. In this sense, the implementation of the I + D + i Model allows the interaction of the internal and external processes to the institution in an integral, holistic, systemic and anthropocentric approach, facilitating the development of the alignment of Integration, Innovation and Modernization of the Institutional Strategic Plan. Through the indicators of CTI-ES the production of new professionals is visualized in order to strength the link between the universities, the enterprises and the society. The university faces the challenge of social and scientific transcendence, contributing to solve social, technological, ecological and industrial problems, typical of the era of knowledge, information and learning, through research, innovation and entrepreneurship.
