This study has analysed the collaboration among Chilean universities in the program MECESUP. The results show that collaboration is an unusual phenomenon where regional institutions have taken a leading role in recent years in a process characterized by homogeneous networks of units responsible for projects implementation. However. most remarkable in this study is that results obtained seem to be related with a metric of complexity proposed for the institutions involved in this program and the heterogeneity of the studied system.Downloads
