Abstract
Academic research projects aimed at integrating interdisciplinary and fusion-scientific research and development have been emphasised from a scientific, technological or innovation viewpoint. However, a standard format for the management of an interdisciplinary R&D institute has yet to be established. Considering this issue, the present study demonstrated a case study of interdisciplinary and fusion-scientific activities with a particular focus on the designing and execution phases. First, we conducted a surveillance in the institute to understand the situation and reality of interdisciplinary activities. Based on the validity of this approach, we structured a set of key performance and activity indicators. Furthermore, we discussed an ideal evaluation process and organisation structure, which contributes to bridging practices at the research institute and science policy levels.
