# Academic Research Institution

*/CompanyTypes/Academic_Research_Institution*

## Digital Scalar

**Band**: hybrid
**Digital**: 0.65
**Rationale**: With no child JobTypes seeded, the score relies entirely on the company type name 'Academic Research Institution'. The work of academic research is fundamentally knowledge creation—heavily involving data analysis, literature review, and writing (digital)—but frequently requires hands-on laboratory experiments, physical field work, or prototype building (physical). This blend of high-end information processing and practical experimental work lands the institution in the upper hybrid band.
