A portrait of government and higher education researchers in European countries

Research in the government and higher education sectors (GOV and HES), are mainly financed by public funds, and therefore less oriented towards profit. It can thus be assumed that these sectors attract researchers with slightly different career objectives than researchers employed in the business enterprise sector. Of the four R&D performing sectors, the higher education sector still employs most researchers at EU level, although the business enterprise sector has gradually been catching up. As a share of total employment, the highest levels of researchers working in the government and higher education sectors in the EU were recorded in Finland. In Luxembourg, the proportion of young researchers in these two sectors is very high, whereas in other countries, such as Latvia, the researcher community working in the government and higher education sectors is relatively old. In most countries for which data are available, the vast majority of researchers are citizens of the country of employment. However, Luxembourg, Switzerland, Cyprus and Denmark counted more than 10 % of foreign researchers in the higher education sector.
