Two Russian university made the list Times Higher Education: Moscow State University back in the top 200, and the company he was Novosibirsk State University, who first appeared in this ranking.
Two Russian university hit the Times Higher Education World University Rankings – an annual world ranking of higher education institutions, which is published by the British magazine Times Higher Education. This ranking is compiled with the support of Thomson Reuters, which provides information about the citation and some other data.
Magazine worked on compiling the ratings since 2004, but in its current form, there is a rating in 2010.
THE World University Rankings as one of the three most influential university rankings in the world along with the QS World University Rankings and Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) .
The top ten best universities, through the list include schools from the United States and Britain – California Institute of Technology, Harvard University, Oxford University, Stanford University, University of Cambridge, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Princeton University, University of California, Berkeley, Imperial College London, as well as Yale and the University of Chicago.
In addition to the British and American universities in the ranking of a lot of Chinese and Korean universities.
In the ranking of each institution is evaluated by five indicators: education, the presence of foreign students and techniques, academic income from the production, research and citation. Education and research provide 60% of the final grade.
MSU overall ranking is 196- th place with 46 will be best, according to the rating at MSU things with the profits from academic research and international programs.
Last year, MSU held Rating 226 -250 place.
In accordance with the request of the President of Russia Vladimir Putin, in 2020 15 Russian universities will have to get in the top 200 best universities in the world, and five of them – the top -100 of one of the three major world rankings – QS, THE, ARWU. Last year, it was selected 15 universities, each of which received additional funding. In recent QS rating went 12 of 15 of these universities.
In rating a Times Higher Education 2014 of the participants of the “5-100″ entered only Novosibirsk State University – it takes 301-350 place.
However, if the rating QS includes 800 items, the ratings Times Higher Education – only 400.
It should be noted that getting the prestigious rating – is the success of the Siberian high school: THE list last year of Russian universities was only MSU. Two years ago, he was the Moscow Engineering Physics Institute (MEPI), who was 226-250 th place, and has historically been considered the second most powerful university in Russia St. Petersburg State University for the last time was a member of THE rating three years ago (351- 400-th place).
Entry Novosibirsk State University in the rating of its rector Michael Fedoruk said message to employees: “in the subject Physical science rating rating agency THE our university among the top hundred best universities in the world and won 85-86 th. Above, at the 56th position of the Russian universities is only MSU. On behalf of the University, thank you for your help and support, your time and effort you spend on the development and prosperity of the NSU. Our confidence that the scientific, educational and innovative potential of NSU and Academic – one of the highest in the world, is reflected in the world rankings ».
There are separate thematic ratings. For example, in the “Arts and humanities” and “Medicine and clinical research” Russian universities and not at all.
But in the sections “Engineering and Technology” and “Physical Sciences “MSU took 66th and 56th places respectively.
At the same time,” Life Sciences “and” social sciences “and does have remained without Russian participants.
rating has been repeatedly criticized due to the fact that, under item “citation” take into account the only publication in English. We can assume that if taken into account, and other languages, the presence in it of Russian universities would be more representative.
«THE rating is considered to be the most unfavorable for Russia and non-English speaking countries – said the director of the Institute of Educational Policy to MSU .f.n. Oleg Gubin. – It is in principle recognized by all in Russia and in the world. He strongly tied to the English-language publications in the “Web Of Science” According to the English-speaking experts (from the former British Empire) and is focused on the rise of other English-speaking universities – American. I call THE and QS rankings are designed and aligned pobeditelski known to English-speaking universities. Thus, in the “Web Of Science” is still completely dominated (50%) English-language journals, magazines (including international), published in English-speaking countries (USA, UK, Canada and Australia), and experts from the above-mentioned countries (more than 50% ).
Russian journals in the humanities and the social and economic disciplines where there is little ».
In the reputational ranking universities World Reputation Rankings, which produced together with the main rating, MSU won 51-60 place, becoming the only Russian university in this segment.
«Improving on all five positions-indicators suggests the complex development of the Moscow State University – said Gubin. – The greatest progress has been made on the criteria of research (research – almost 20%) and citation (citation to an article – more than 20%). ” According to Gubin, Moscow State University – one of the few Russian universities, which systematically increases the number of publications, not only in English but also in journals indexed in the “Web Of Science” (this is a requirement of the May presidential decree). So now MSU publications can be found among the most influential and widely read scientific papers, including textually and linguistically complex because of their English-speaking.
convinced Gubin, growing interest in the research of MSU scientists, increasing international recognition of the research Scientists of the University (hence – the growth rate of citation of articles). “This, in turn, means that MSU scientists conduct research on cutting-edge areas of science and the world are actively involved in the formation of scientific fronts and promotion of new scientific ideas,” – added the professor.
«MSU is a leading university in the world by number of joint publications with foreign scientists. Professor of Moscow State University is an active participant in the formation of international research teams. More and more foreign scholars are willing to participate in research and soavtorstvovat where scientists MSU leaders act “- said Gubin.
