Classifications: 89-26-0004
Description: The Canadian Research and Development Classification (CRDC) was developed conjointly by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI), the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), and Statistics Canada which is the custodian. This standard classification, inspired by the Frascati Model 2015 of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), is used by the federal granting agencies and Statistics Canada to collect, analyze, and disseminate data related to research and development in Canada. The classification consists of three main components: the Type of Activity (TOA), the Field of Research (FOR), and Socioeconomic Objective (SEO).
