前三甲被日韩抢占

韩国KAIST大学（简称KAIST）连续第三年被评为亚太地区最具创新力的大学。KAIST的前身是韩国科学技术院，是韩国历史最悠久、以科研为主的理工大学，在大田市、首尔市和釜山市建有校区。

KAIST最近的主要研究成果包括开发了极耐用的铂基燃料电池催化剂，以消除催化剂运行时空气中的颗粒物，而这项创新有助于电动汽车提高能效，降低驾驶时产生的污染。

凭借大量有影响力的创新，KAIST再次位居亚洲最具创新力大学榜单之首。其研究人员申请的专利数量超过了其它上榜的大学，而且这些专利经常被机构外的科研人员在各自的专利和学术论文中加以引用。

The most innovative university in the region, for the third consecutive year, is South Korea’s KAIST. Formerly known as the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, it is the nation’s oldest research-oriented science and engineering university,with campuses in Daejeon, Seoul and Busan. Recent KAIST research highlights include the development of a highly durable platinum-based fuel cell catalyst that removes particulate matter from the air while it is in operation, an innovation that could lead to more efficient electric vehicles that reduce pollution when once again earned its firstplace rank among the APAC’s most innovative universities by producing a high volume of influential researchers submit more patents than any other university on the list,and those patents are frequently cited by outside researchers in their own patents and papers.
