ÖFOS 2012

Description

ÖFOS 2012 (Austrian System of Science) Description: The Austrian System of Sciences 2012 (ÖFOS 2012) is the version of the revised international classification Fields of Science and Technology (FOS), which was published as Fields of Research and Development (FORD) in the Frascati Manual 2015, and whose application is binding in international comparison and in particular within the European statistical system. Compared to ÖFOS 2002, the level of the so-called 1-Steller with the six main groups natural sciences, technical sciences, human medicine, health sciences, agricultural sciences, veterinary medicine, social sciences and humanities has remained unchanged. In order to ensure international comparability, the new 3-Steller system (groups) of the international New Fields of Science (FOS) was adopted as the next level instead of the no longer applicable 2-point plates. In order to further address national circumstances in the new Austrian scientific classification, the 3-digits were provided with further sub-groups (4-digits) taking into account the explanations of the international classification. The fields of work mentioned in the Alphabetical (keywords) with the corresponding 6-digits are used to describe research activities (e.g. research projects) and/or to record the main scientific activities of a survey unit of R & D surveys.
