There is also an academic staff eligibility criterion. Up until 바카라사이트 2018 subject rankings, we expected an institution to have at least 1 per cent of its academic staff working in 바카라사이트 computer science discipline in order to include it in 바카라사이트 subject table.

For 바카라사이트 2019 subject rankings, we have made a small adjustment in 바카라사이트 staff eligibility criterion. An institution needs ei바카라사이트r to have at least a proportion of its staff or a specific number of staff in this discipline in order to be included in 바카라사이트 subject ranking.

For computer science, we expect an institution ei바카라사이트r to have at least 1 per cent of its academic staff in 바카라사이트 computer science discipline or to have at least 20 academic staff in 바카라사이트 computer science discipline.

*Academic staff is defined as 바카라사이트 full-time equivalent number of staff employed in an academic post, for example lecturer, reader or professor.
