| Sumario: | The Center for Research and Training in Public Administration (CICAP) of the University of Costa Rica (UCR) is an institution that, for 49 years, functioned as a vehicle for the diffusion of the field of knowledge of Public Administration in the country. Given its importance in generating and disseminating knowledge to improve public management capacity, we present a characterization of the scientific production of the Center, basing the discussion on two questions: How can evidence-based decisions be made to publish and disseminate scientific production in Public Administration at an international level? In what way does CICAP's scientific production results in input for decision-making with greater scientific impact on this field research? For this, we employ a mixed methodology based on a bibliometric study and switch. As a result, it is possible to identify both the dynamics of the production of knowledge of the CICAP, as well as potential lines of research in the field of Public Administration: Municipal Development, Public Administration, Customs and Foreign Trade and Open Government. Therefore, the article offers an empirical contribution to CICAP and a theoretical contribution to the field of Public Administration. |
