The S&T Statistical Unit’s main function is to collect, compile
and disseminate statistics in the field of Science and Technology
(S&T). Science and technological activities are closely
concerned with the generation, advancement and application of
knowledge in all fields of science and technology. These include
such activities as research and development (R&D), scientific and
technical education and training (STET), and scientific and
technological services (STS).
The data collected by the Unit are obtained from primary sources
through national surveys, as well as secondary sources through
administrative records and data collected by the national statistical
office. For a list of reports published by the Unit refer to Surveys
