The British publication Times Higher Education published subject rankings of universities. In particular, THE publishes an overall world ranking, subject rankings, an impact rating, and three regional ranking tables. The weight indicators of the subject ranking Engineering and Computer science are as follows:
Teaching: learning environment – 30%
Research: volume, income and reputation – 30%
Quotes: research impact – 27.5%
International perspectives: staff, students and research – 7.5%
Revenue: innovation – 5%.
The right to be included in the subject rankings of Engineering and Computer science is determined by two criteria: the threshold of publication in the discipline (1000 for 5 years) and the number of academic staff in the discipline.
This year, the Kharkiv National University of Radio Electronics in the ranking of Computer Science took a position in the group 401-500, in Engineering – in the group 801-1000.
A total of 891 universities in Computer Science were rated, compared to 827 last year, and 1,188 universities in Engineering, compared to 1,098 last year.
Among Ukrainian universities, NURE took 2nd place in subject rankings in both Computer Science and Engineering.
To advance in subject rankings it is necessary to increase the number of publications and their impact in indexed academic publications, to attract more teachers in basic and applied research, to create a more attractive environment for foreign students and teachers.
