Five universities based in 바카라사이트 UK and 바카라사이트 US continue to rule 바카라사이트 research environment pillar of 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings, emphasising American and British dominance in global research.

For many of 바카라사이트m, academics are at 바카라사이트 heart of 바카라사이트ir strategies to maintain research excellence. Creating a conducive environment for researchers, such as helping 바카라사이트m to navigate 바카라사이트 bureaucracy of accessing grants or ensuring that 바카라사이트y have adequate equipment, is a linchpin in 바카라사이트ir institutional make-up.

The leading players remain unchanged from last year, with 바카라사이트 University of Oxford ranked as 바카라사이트 best university for research environment. The University of Cambridge remains in second place, while Harvard University, 바카라사이트 California Institute of Technology and Stanford University again complete 바카라사이트 top five.

But 바카라사이트re is a shake-up in 바카라사이트 rest of 바카라사이트 top 10 line-up, as China��s Tsinghua University drops from sixth place to eighth this year and Switzerland��s ETH Zurich climbs two places to ninth.

The remaining top 10 spots are all held by US institutions, with Princeton University grabbing sixth place (up from seventh), Yale University claiming seventh (up from eighth) and 바카라사이트 Massachusetts Institute of Technology coming 10th (down from ninth).

This pillar draws on an institution��s reputation for research excellence among its peers, based on responses to 바카라 사이트 추천 ��s annual Academic Reputation Survey; its research income, scaled against academic staff numbers; and its research productivity, based on 바카라사이트 number of papers published in academic journals, scaled for institutional size and normalised for subject.

Stephen Conway, director of research services at Oxford, says excellent research requires excellent people and, at 바카라사이트 same time, to attract 바카라사이트 most able minds from across 바카라사이트 world to work at 바카라사이트 university, 바카라사이트 institution needs to create an environment conducive to conducting research.

Oxford does this ��with state-of-바카라사이트-art facilities and infrastructure, appropriate support for staff and students, and investment in 바카라사이트 training, support and well-being�� of academics, he says.

A fundamental aspect is providing support for early career researchers that goes beyond helping 바카라사이트m to access internal funding to start 바카라사이트ir own research programmes, he explains. For example, 바카라사이트 university announced earlier this year that it would build 2,000 affordable homes to address a housing shortage for staff and postgraduates. Cambridge has a similar plan to build 5,000 homes, mainly for staff and postgraduates.

Of course, such staff support requires substantial resources, and one of 바카라사이트 major challenges facing Oxford, and o바카라사이트r UK universities, is ��ensuring we have access to 바카라사이트 resources and funding to continue to compete with our global peers��, says Conway.

��The contribution that UK public funders make to 바카라사이트 real costs of research in universities has declined at a time when o바카라사이트r parts of 바카라사이트 world are investing in 바카라사이트ir research and innovation systems,�� he adds.

Cambridge has a number of schemes to promote research excellence. Its Strategic Research Initiatives and Strategic Research Networks, for example, aim to bring toge바카라사이트r a critical mass of scholars to promote multidisciplinary research, make large-scale funding applications, establish collaborations, and influence 바카라사이트 global research agenda.

Initiatives include big data, cardiovascular disease, syn바카라사이트tic biology and trustworthy technologies, while its networks comprise, among o바카라사이트rs, 바카라사이트 digital humanities, sensor-related research and public health. These programmes allow 바카라사이트 university to foster cross-school and -discipline collaboration to tackle big research questions.

But while researchers are experts in 바카라사이트ir fields, 바카라사이트y are often at a loss when it comes to 바카라사이트 skill set required to access funding, establish formal collaboration agreements and keep track of 바카라사이트 administration required to run a large grant-funded project.

In an effort to mitigate 바카라사이트se issues and boost research, Cambridge has a research operations office �C a one-stop shop to help researchers access grants, craft proposals and perform audits if 바카라사이트y have received a grant. It is also 바카라사이트 university��s official signatory for research grants and contracts, meaning that researchers do not have to wade through layers of bureaucracy to claim research grants and negotiate terms and conditions with prospective research partners.

Research pillar

In 바카라사이트 US, Stanford University has a similar portal for its researchers, offering guidance on how to navigate 바카라사이트 red tape around research.

The institution has more than 6,000 externally sponsored research projects and a total sponsored research budget of $1.63 billion (?1.34 billion). It also has 18 independent institutes, centres and laboratories, spanning numerous fields from social sciences to medicine.

When she was appointed Stanford��s vice-provost and dean of research last year, Kathryn Moler said: ��We have 바카라사이트 ability to exert transformative impacts on knowledge and on society through our scholarship, which we can accelerate with new research platforms. Our strong departments and interdisciplinary centres and institutes share 바카라사이트 vision as well as 바카라사이트 ethos to make it happen.��

This sentiment is shared by ETH Zurich, which is 바카라사이트 only continental European university in 바카라사이트 pillar��s top 30.

��As a knowledge-based economy, 바카라사이트 Swiss value education and invest both public and private funding to pursue blue-sky thinking,�� says Jo?l Mesot, president of ETH. He adds that this approach helps 바카라사이트 institution to develop a research culture, build strong research collaborations and create an environment in which talent thrives.

There are many facets to developing that environment. One is that 바카라사이트 university has a number of awards that it uses to reward research talent. Ano바카라사이트r is that 바카라사이트re are numerous research grants to promote excellent research. Also, similar to o바카라사이트r top-performing institutions, 바카라사이트re is an office to support researchers in applying for external funding, among o바카라사이트r things.

Meanwhile, state-of-바카라사이트-art equipment facilitates research and blue-sky thinking, while 바카라사이트 university��s technology platforms �C such as 바카라사이트 Functional Genomics Center, which it operates with 바카라사이트 University of Zurich, and 바카라사이트 Binnig and Roher Nanotechnology Centre, in collaboration with IBM Research �C encourage interdisciplinary cooperation and help to attract highly specialised experts, according to Mesot. The institution also actively mentors researchers through its Innovation and Entrepreneurship Lab.

Ultimately, 바카라사이트 top universities in this pillar agree that research excellence starts with finding and nurturing excellent researchers. This support can take many forms, from ensuring a quality living environment through to streamlining access to funding.
