2.7%of its 3,118 research works in 2021 to 2025 were co-authored with a verified company

0.90times the industry co-authorship rate expected for its mix of research fields (83 verified works; about 92 expected)

Where it works with industry

Sector strengths

Verified industry works by sector, with its position in each sector ranking. A university is ranked in a sector once it has at least 20 verified works there; sectors with fewer than 50 eligible universities are provisional.

Not yet ranked in any sector: a sector ranking needs at least 20 verified works in the sector. Its largest sector is Agriculture and Food Technology, with 11.

Not in any of the 21 sectors

44.5counted in the overall index

38.5 of its 83 verified industry works fall within the 21 sectors. The rest have research topics that belong to no industry sector (basic science, for example) or are consortium papers with 100 or more authors, which the sector indices leave out; all of them count fully in the overall index.

Who it works with

Company partners, 2021 to 2025

Southern Illinois University Carbondale co-authored verified work with 64 company groups, consortium papers aside: 15 of them on two or more works.

The largest 12 of its 64 company groups, by joint works

Company group	Based in	Company's main research field	Joint works	Years with a joint work

A company group brings together a company's subsidiaries and research labs under one name. A work counts half when its only company author also holds a post at this university. Consortium papers with 100 or more authors are left out of this table.

Its largest partner accounts for 9% of its partnered work.
48% of its partnered work is with companies based in United States.
None of its company links is to a company whose recorded address is within 50 km of the university. A recorded address is often a head office, so local sites of large companies are under-counted.
5% of its partnered work is with state-owned companies; the index counts them as industry when they sell goods or services, as the OECD Frascati Manual does, and marks each one.

2025 is not yet complete: papers published late in the year are still being added to the open record, and coverage may not be equally complete for every university, so compare years with care. A work counts half when its only company author also holds a post at the university, so some totals end in .5.

Evidence checked

99 verified company links

Each counted link (one work, this university and one company) was confirmed against the affiliation text its author wrote; 106 of 205 candidate links were set aside.

Why links were set aside

49 company name not written in the author's affiliation
30 ordinary-word name without a company suffix
10 part of a university or public institute's own unit
4 a place or common word that failed its stricter rule
4 excluded after hand audit: Matched from street addresses (State Street)
2 part of a street or district address
7 for other reasons: smaller hand-audit findings, and links the current open record no longer supports

GRP Partnership Intelligence Platform

Where Southern Illinois University Carbondale's collaboration could go next

This profile is free and public, and it stays that way. Beyond it, the GRP Partnership Intelligence Platform, a partner service arranged with each university, sets your record in both GRP indices beside the peers you choose: the universities and companies your peers work with that you do not, live funding calls matched to your strengths, the EU projects your peers have won, and a brief ready for your executive. It opens to partner universities on Monday 19 October 2026: enquire, and the GRP team will confirm availability and pricing for your university.

Something wrong? Every figure comes from the public record and can be checked. If a partner is missing or should not be there, tell us and we will review it with the evidence. The 2027 edition will be calculated with the same published methodology. The window for universities to submit data for it is open now: submit data for the 2027 edition. The index is free, public and independent. No commercial relationship with any university or company changes any position, and no one can pay to be included, excluded or moved.
