Abstract
This study examines the Advanced Engineering School (AES) as a strategic institutional actor within the National Innovation System (NIS) in the context of post-industrial development and technological transformation. A conceptual and analytical research design was used, integrating institutional, organizational, systems, ontological, situational, and behavioral approaches to clarify the roles, functions, and interaction mechanisms of AES. AES strengthens innovation systems through customized research, applied innovation development, creativity-oriented engineering education, and cross-sectoral partnerships. AES also operates through cooperative and competitive relationships with universities, research institutes, competence centers, industrial enterprises, and analytical organizations. AES can support innovation system transformation, technological sovereignty, and sustainable development goals (SDGs).
