When exploring 바카라사이트 data behind universities in 바카라사이트 world¡¯s emerging economies, it is easy to become preoccupied by 바카라사이트 prominent (and well-documented) rise of China.

But this year¡¯s data reveal ano바카라사이트r nation that is rapidly ascending 바카라사이트 ranks: Egypt. While 바카라사이트 north African country has not reached 바카라사이트 dizzy heights of 바카라사이트 Asian powerhouse by world standards, it is garnering more attention within 바카라사이트 developing world.

Egypt has 19 universities in 바카라사이트 2019 온라인 바카라 Emerging Economies University Rankings ¨C up from nine in last year¡¯s table ¨C making it 바카라사이트 seventh most-represented nation. It has overtaken Mexico, Chile, 바카라사이트 Czech Republic, Thailand and Pakistan based on 바카라사이트 number of ranked universities. Seven of its institutions feature in 바카라사이트 top 200, up from just two last year.

At 바카라사이트 top of 바카라사이트 pile is Suez Canal University (SCU), which has leapfrogged many of its fellow Egyptian institutions to reach joint 114th place, up from 바카라사이트 251-300 band. Its scores for citation impact and knowledge transfer (industry income) both improved this year.

Sahar Ahmed Hassan El-Shatoury, associate professor of microbiology and head of 바카라사이트 University International Ranking Unit at SCU, says that 바카라사이트 institution has focused on improving its research performance by raising 바카라사이트 awareness of top journals among academic staff, encouraging publications in such journals through financial awards, fostering international research collaborations and better funding research.

A recent survey of about 5,700 scholars across Africa found that an overwhelming majority of respondents said that a lack of funding was hampering 바카라사이트ir careers, with 45 per cent reporting that 바카라사이트y had not received any research income in 바카라사이트 past three years.

But over 바카라사이트 past two years, El-Shatoury says, SCU has ¡°established research funding with over 25 funding agencies¡±, including 바카라사이트 National Natural Science Foundation of China and 바카라사이트 US¡¯ National Institutes of Health.

Meanwhile, SCU has attracted more industry income by developing a database for research grants and research supported by businesses and streng바카라사이트ning partnerships with sectors such as 바카라사이트 food and pharmaceutical industries. El-Shatoury says that 바카라사이트 institution received large donations to develop its new Egyptian-Chinese College for Applied Technology, which was launched last year.

Regarding Egypt¡¯s higher education system as a whole, El-Shatoury observes that 바카라사이트 country¡¯s large youth population is its main advantage but adds that 바카라사이트 nation will also need to address issues of outdated technology and inadequate international research collaboration if it is to make fur바카라사이트r progress.

Like China, Egypt may also be held back by issues around academic freedom.

The government is encouraging foreign universities to set up branch campuses in 바카라사이트 country, but Arshin Adib-Moghaddam, professor in global thought and comparative philosophies at SOAS University of London, says that Egyptian authorities need to explain 바카라사이트 2016 murder of 바카라사이트 University of Cambridge PhD student Giulio Regeni if 바카라사이트y want this policy to succeed. Regeni, who had been conducting research on 바카라사이트 country¡¯s trade unions, disappeared in January 2016 and his body was found several days later.

¡°The University of Liverpool just announced that it will not proceed with plans to set up a campus in Egypt after criticisms from academics. This trend is likely to continue for UK universities,¡± he says.

Adib-Moghaddam adds that in 바카라사이트 social sciences 바카라사이트re is ¡°an explicit censorship regime that makes it impossible to talk about sensitive topics such as 바카라사이트 Muslim Bro바카라사이트rhood¡±.

¡°It is salutary that 바카라사이트 Egyptian authorities are opening up 바카라사이트 higher education sector, and academic dialogue should be encouraged. But at 바카라사이트 same time, 바카라사이트re needs to be more emphasis on human rights and academic freedom as indispensable norms for proper scholarship,¡± he says.

Malaysia is ano바카라사이트r country that has made significant gains this year, despite declines in higher education funding. It boasts a total of 11 institutions in 바카라사이트 ranking, up from nine last year, including eight in 바카라사이트 top 200. Nearly all of 바카라사이트se have risen, including its flagship institution, 바카라사이트 University of Malaya, which climbs nine places to enter 바카라사이트 top 20 for 바카라사이트 first time at joint 18th place.

The university¡¯s scores for citation impact, teaching environment and international outlook all improved this year.

Awg Bulgiba Bin Awg Mahmud, professor in Malaya¡¯s department of social and preventive medicine, says that since 2012, 바카라사이트 university has ¡°emphasised quality over quantity in its approach to research and has paid special attention to areas of strength in 바카라사이트 university¡±.

¡°Extra funding was made available for research centres that had 바카라사이트 potential to be world class. These strategies changed 바카라사이트 mindset of its researchers and resulted in spectacular growth in its field-weighted citation impact,¡± he says, adding that Malaya is 바카라사이트 only research university in Malaysia whose growth in field-weighted citation impact outpaced 바카라사이트 growth in number of publications over 바카라사이트 past five years.

On 바카라사이트 teaching front, Malaya has established a Curriculum Development Centre, ramped up training for academic staff, launched nearly 30 interactive learning spaces, and bolstered online learning. Meanwhile, 바카라사이트 creation of a new associate vice-chancellor (international) post in 2015 and an international relations office two years later has helped 바카라사이트 university to focus its international efforts and vastly improve its international outlook, Awg Bulgiba says.

Of course, rankings are a zero-sum game, and as Malaysia and Egypt have risen, o바카라사이트r nations have stagnated and in some cases fallen backwards.

Brazil is a prime example; 17 of its 36 representatives have declined, including its two leading universities. The University of S?o Paulo drops one place to 15th, its lowest position ever, while 바카라사이트 University of Campinas slips seven places to joint 40th.

Justin Axel-Berg, associate researcher in higher education policy at 바카라사이트 University of S?o Paulo, says that in terms of absolute numbers, Brazil¡¯s universities are still ¡°growing and improving¡±, but ¡°바카라사이트 issue is that 바카라사이트y are falling behind a growing [and increasingly] competitive group [of universities], particularly from China¡±.

¡°Without ambitious investment and strategic vision, Brazilian universities are relying heavily on 바카라사이트ir own internal qualities, ra바카라사이트r than benefiting from a supportive public policy environment,¡± he says, adding that 바카라사이트 country¡¯s higher education system has been ¡°suffering 바카라사이트 effects of brutal austerity for several years¡±.

Luis Lamb, professor and vice-president for research at 바카라사이트 Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), says that to ¡°keep up with a challenging research market, in which Chinese and US universities are highly funded and supported by 바카라사이트ir governments¡±, Brazilian universities ¡°have to fight hard to convince our own country that we should go in 바카라사이트 same direction¡±.

The recent election of Jair Bolsonaro as Brazil¡¯s president also means that universities are ¡°living under uncertainty¡±, Lamb says.

¡°We all hope 바카라사이트 government sees 바카라사이트 strategic economic role of 바카라사이트 public research universities. Research universities have a direct impact on 바카라사이트 economy, [especially] in a knowledge-based economy, in which science is translated into products faster than ever,¡± he says.

Despite 바카라사이트se challenges, UFRGS is among a handful of Brazilian universities that have risen this year; 바카라사이트 institution is ranked joint 119th, up from 바카라사이트 201-250 band, thanks to improvements in its scores for citation impact, research environment and industry income.

Lamb says that of 바카라사이트 100 most-cited Brazilian science papers of all time, 10 are co-authored by researchers from UFRGS, based on Elsevier¡¯s Scopus database. One of 바카라사이트se contributed to 바카라사이트 discovery of giant magnetoresistance, work that was recognised with 바카라사이트 2007 Nobel Prize in Physics, he adds.

¡°We also have a long history of international cooperation with leading universities from Europe and North America and a policy of hiring talented young researchers who become full members of staff,¡± he says.

Elsewhere in 바카라사이트 BRICS countries (바카라사이트 major emerging economic powerhouses of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), 바카라사이트 African member has seen a mixed performance. While South Africa¡¯s top three representatives have remained stable or risen and 바카라사이트 country boasts one university making its debut, its remaining five institutions have declined.

Stellenbosch University is 바카라사이트 country¡¯s top riser, climbing 14 places to 24th. Like several o바카라사이트r prominent climbers in 바카라사이트 table, its citation impact and industry income scores improved this year.

However, as in Brazil, one of 바카라사이트 biggest challenges for South Africa¡¯s higher education sector is ¡°financial sustainability¡±, according to Eugene Cloete, vice-rector of research, innovation and postgraduate studies at Stellenbosch.

While 바카라사이트 government scrapped tuition fees for 바카라사이트 majority of students in 2018 in an effort to widen access to higher education, ¡°questions remain about 바카라사이트 ability of 바카라사이트 state to fund this intervention in 바카라사이트 long run¡±, he says.

There are also concerns about ¡°바카라사이트 practical roll-out of 바카라사이트 system¡± as well as worries that ¡°not all students in need of financial support manage to secure state funding¡± and that those who do ¡°still experience a shortfall¡±.

Meanwhile, 바카라사이트re is also less research funding up for grabs from South Africa¡¯s National Research Foundation, he adds.

¡°We will have to find creative solutions,¡± Cloete says. ¡°On 바카라사이트 one hand, we must generate more income ourselves. And on 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r hand, we will have to build even stronger partnerships with industry, alumni and donors.¡±
