      abstract = {This paper investigates the presence and sources of  economies of scope in R&D production at U.S. research  universities.  The analysis evaluates the tradeoffs or  synergies arising between traditional university research  outputs (articles and doctorates) and a more recent and  burgeoning output: academic patents. Using a shortage  function, we propose a decomposition of economies of scope  (decomposition which includes complementarity effects and  scale effects). R&D input and output data from 92 public  and private research universities are used to obtain  non-parametric estimates of scope economies. The results  show significant variations in economies of scope and  sources by size and type of university.},
