EU-funded ranking sees 600 institutions involved

Staff responsible for U-Multirank ¨C to be published for 바카라사이트 first time in March ¨C discussed details of 바카라사이트 project at 바카라사이트 World-Class Universities conference, held by Shanghai Jiao Tong University from 3 to 6 November.

Adam Tyson, head of higher education and Erasmus at 바카라사이트 European Commission, said U-Multirank ¨C which is funded by 바카라사이트 Commission, 바카라사이트 EU¡¯s executive body ¨C would ¡°help to recognise diversity and excellence in different forms¡±.

The ranking would be about more than research performance, taking into account indicators such as ¡°quality of teaching and learning¡± as well as knowledge transfer and contribution to regional development, he told 바카라사이트 conference in Shanghai, where 온라인 바카라 was also among 바카라사이트 participants.

It was ¡°important not to produce league tables¡±, Mr Tyson said. He argued that it was important for governments to be able to understand 바카라사이트ir institutions and 바카라사이트ir higher education systems to meet policy challenges.

Gero Federkeil, U-Multirank coordinator, confirmed that around 650 institutions had registered for participation.

From those a ¡°full data set¡± has been obtained ¡°for more than 600 institutions¡±, he said.

¡°In addition to that we will include 바카라사이트 top research institutions based on bibliometric analysis from our colleagues in Leiden [바카라사이트 CWTS Leiden Ranking],¡± Mr Federkeil added.

As 바카라사이트 bibliometric and patent data on top research universities already exists, this element ¡°does not require 바카라사이트 active involvement, participation, of universities,¡± he continued.

U-Multirank has secured involvement from 15 US institutions. The ranking aims to build worldwide participation in future years progressively.

Mr Federkeil said 바카라사이트re would be a ¡°pre step to 바카라사이트 ranking¡±, involving a U-Multirank ¡°tool to identify comparable institutions¡± based on factors such as student population or ¡°international orientation versus regional orientation¡±.

Then, users ¡°will define in which type of profile of institution he or she is interested¡±, he added.

And in 바카라사이트 final step, ¡°바카라사이트re will be a ranking amongst this particular institutional profile. This means we will not have one long list of some thousand institutions with very different profiles.¡±

Users could choose ¡°different combinations of selection criteria¡± which would tailor 바카라사이트ir ranking results to 바카라사이트ir individual interests, Mr Federkeil said.
