- Opis:
- The aim of this article is to describe the economic aspects of scientific projects based on the example of the project “Healthy Students” within the framework of the program “Small Grants for Sustainable Development,” co-financed by the Ecological Association EKO-UNIA. The aims, essence, and importance of scientific projects will be presented in this article. The types, parameters and elements necessary to maintain the economic aspects of scientific projects were presented. The study is based on the results of a survey, focus interviews, and a literature review. The research goal of the article was to evaluate the economic aspects of scientific projects based on the example of the “Healthy Students” project and the answers received from respondents, and the author’s own experience. The research has contributed to the formulation of the research objective: Are there any economic aspects of research projects stemming from a project co-financed by the Ecological Association “EKO-UNIA”? Referring to the presented research problem, the author adopted the hypothesis that there are economic aspects of scientific projects as supported by the example of the project “Healthy Students.” The results of the research allowed the author to verify the research hypothesis. The subjective scope of assessment covered students from the West Pomeranian Province. Economic aspects of scientific projects were the subject of evaluation. To obtain empirical data, a questionnaire consisting of twenty-five single- and multiple-choice questions was used, and was conducted on a target group of students from the West Pomeranian Province to verify accuracy of the research hypothesis. The results of this study show that, according to students, scientific projects have economic aspects, and that it is worthwhile to participate in such initiatives. The choice of this area of interest results from the fact that currently issues connected with applying for co-financing from various institutions, i.e. NCN, NCBR, Ministry of Science and Higher Education and various associations, are of increasing importance for and are widely discussed by scientific entities (universities).
