  • The Effect of University Mergers on the Shanghai Ranking
    Scientometrics The Effect of University Mergers on the Shanghai Ranking D. Docampo · D. Egret · L. Cram Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract The growing influence of the idea of world-class universities and the associ- ated phenomenon of international academic rankings are intriguing issues for contem- porary comparative analyses of higher education. Although the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU or the Shanghai ranking) was originally devised to assess the gap between Chinese universities and world-class universities, it has since been credited with roles in stimulating higher education change on many scales, from in- creasing the labor value of individual high-performing scholars to wholesale renovation of national university systems including mergers. This paper exhibits the response of the ARWU indicators and rankings to institutional mergers in general, and specifically analyses the universities of France that are engaged in a major amalgamation process motivated in part by a desire for higher international rankings. Keywords Academic rankings · Shanghai · ARWU · mergers · French universities · French Higher Education System 1 Introduction The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU or the Shanghai Ranking) was developed \to assess the gap between Chinese universities and world-class universities" (Liu and Cheng, 2005). It scores and ranks the world's leading research universities Domingo Docampo Universidad de Vigo, Atlantic Research Center for Information and Communication Technolo- gies; Campus Universitario, 36310 Vigo, Spain.

  • RC/WG/GT Presidents 2018-2022 Lindy Heinecken
    RC/WG/GT Presidents 2018-2022 Lindy Heinecken Professor in the Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology, Stellenbosch University, South Africa. Her main focus of her research is in the domain of armed forces and society where she has published widely on a range of issues, including civil military relations, military unionism and defence transformation. Her more recent research focuses on gender integration in the military, military recruitment and peacekeeping. She serves on numerous academic boards, including the Council of the Inter-University Seminar on Armed Forces and Society (IUS), the International Sociological Association’s (ISA) Armed Forces and Conflict Resolution Group (RC01), and is a National Research Foundation B3 rated researcher in South Africa. [email protected] Aaron Pitluck Associate Professor of Sociology at Illinois State University (USA). Previously he has been a Visiting Scholar at the University of Chicago, a 20th Anniversary Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Central European University (Hungary), and on Research and Teaching Staff at the University of Konstanz (Germany). I have learned that there are two RC02s that need nurturing: the transient and ephemeral Forums and World Congresses, and our permanent online community. I aspire for RC02 to become a continuous online discourse rather than a syncopated meeting site. We are moving off our email listservs and PDF newsletters and into an integrated newsletter and announcement platform accessible via a new website. To promote members’ research, we’ve secured an institutional affiliation with an established public sociology media outlet. Our board members are pursuing several strategies to increase the number of interim conferences. Finally, we are in the early days of organizing a RC02 International Doctoral Student Workshop at the next World Congress.
