Ежегодно появляются новые глобальные, региональные, национальные, отраслевые, предметные и пр. рейтинги университетов. Неуклонно растет число университетов, охватываемых рейтинговыми системами и университетов, стремящихся проявить себя в том или ином рейтинге. Несмотря на распространенный скепсис по отношению к рейтингам, они не утрачивают, а только увеличивают свою значимость. В предлагаемом вниманию обзоре представлены и кратко проанализированы основные результаты наиболее известных и авторитетных рейтингов университетских рейтингов, вышедших в период с августа 2020 по июнь 2021гг. Первоочередное внимание уделено представленности в международных рейтингах российских вузов. В обзоре рассмотрены результаты таких наиболее авторитетных рейтингов, как Академический рейтинг мировых университетов (ARWU), рейтингов двух британских компаний - аналитического агентства Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) и журнала Times Higher Education; испанского рейтинга Webomtrics. Также рассмотрены более поздние по времени своего появления, но заслуживающие пристального внимания системы рейтингования университетов российского агентства RUR и американского аналитического агентства U.S. News. Не обделены вниманием и менее популярные университетские рейтинги, такие как Мировой рейтинг университетов CWUR, Международный рейтинг научных учреждений SCImago, Мировой профессиональный рейтинг университетов RankPro®, Рейтинг научной производительности университетов (URAP) и Лейденский рейтинг университетов. Академические рейтинги ARWU Академический рейтинг мировых университетов 2020 (Academic Ranking of World Universities ARWU – 2020) Академический рейтинг мировых университетов выпускается компанией Shanghai Ranking Consultancy - независимой организацией по изучению высшего образования, которая, как заявлено на официальном сайте рейтинга, юридически не подчиняется ни каким-либо университетам, ни каким-либо правительственным учреждениям. В рейтинге ARWU могут участвовать университеты, в которых есть сотрудники или выпускники - лауреаты Нобелевской премии или медали Филдса, университеты, в которых работают высокоцитируемые исследователи или исследователи, публикующиеся в Nature or Science. Также к участию в рейтинге привлекаются университеты со значительным числом статей, индексируемых в Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCIE) и Social Science Citation Index (SSCI). Последний выпуск рейтинга вышел 15 августа 2020 года. Для создания рейтинга была произведена оценка более 2000 университетов, из которых 1000 лучших вошли в публикуемую часть рейтинга. Рейтинг формируется на основании шести индикаторов: 1. Число выпускников-лауреатов Нобелевской премии или медали Филдса (Alumni) – 10%; источники – http://nobelprize.org/, http://www.mathunion.org/ 3 2. Число сотрудников университета - лауреатов Нобелевской премии или медали Филдса (Award) – 20%; источники – http://nobelprize.org/, http://www.mathunion.org/ 3. Число наиболее часто цитируемых исследователей в различных предметных областях (HiCi) – 20%; источник - https://clarivate.com/hcr/ 4. Число статей, опубликованных в журналах Nature и Science в период с 2015 по 2019 гг. (N&S) - 20%; источник - http://www.webofscience.com/ 5. Число статей, проиндексированных в Science Citation Index – Expanded и Social Sciences Citation Index (PUB)в 2019 году – 20%; источник - http://www.webofscience.com/ 6. Академическая производительность на одного представителя научно- преподавательского состава вуза - результат деления суммы баллов по предыдущим пяти показателям на число эквивалентов полной ставки академического персонала (PCP) – 10%; источники – такие государственные учреждения, как министерства образования, государственное бюро статистики, национальные ассоциации университетов и колледжей. В последнем выпуске рейтинга состав лидирующей группы топ-10 остался без изменений. На первых шести позициях снова Гарвардский, Стэнфордский, Кембриджский университеты, Массачусетский технологический институт, Калифорнийский университет в Беркли и Принстонский университет. Изменения произошли на 7 – 9 строках: Оксфордский университет спустился с седьмой на девятую позицию, дав возможность Колумбийскому университету и Калифорнийскому технологическому институту подняться в рейтинговой таблице и занять соответственно седьмое и восьмое места. Десятку лидеров снова замыкает Чикагский университет. Топ 10 рейтинга ARWU 2020 World Total Institution Rank Score 1 Harvard University 100.0 2 Stanford University 74.2 3 University of Cambridge 70.6 4 Massachusetts Institute of Technology 69.6 (MIT) 5 University of California, Berkeley 65.8 6 Princeton University 61.1 7 Columbia University 58.6 8 California Institute of Technology 57.7 9 University of Oxford 57.2 10 University of Chicago 54.6 Россия в рейтинговом списке снова представлена 11 вузами, список которых возглавляют МГУЛомоносов, СПбГУ и МФТИ. В этом рейтинге наиболее удачно российские университеты проявляют себя при их оценке по числу статей, проиндексированных в Science Citation Index – Expanded и Social 4 Sciences Citation Index (PUB) и по академической производительности одного представителя научно-преподавательского состава вуза (PCP). Наиболее сложным для российских университетов остается показатель, оценивающий число наиболее часто цитируемых исследователей (HiCi). Отметим, что в последнем выпуске российский университет впервые получил ненулевое значение по этому показателю. Таким университетом стал СПбГУ. Другим сложным показателем для российских вузов является показатель "Award", оценивающий

    ÖZGÜN ARAŞTIRMA/ORIGINAL ARTICLE Yükseköğretim ve Bilim Dergisi/Journal of Higher Education and Science DOI: 10.5961/jhes.2020.405 Üniversite Sıralama Göstergelerinin Bulanık Analitik Hiyerarşi Prosesi (AHP) ile Sıralanması Ranking of Universities Ranking Indicators by Fuzzy Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) Nuray TOSUNOĞLU, Ayşen APAYDIN ÖZ Üniversitelerin akademik performanslarına göre sıralanması tüm dünyada ilgiyle takip edilen bir konudur. Sıralamaların amacı belirli göstergelere göre üniversiteleri sıralamak ve bu sıralama aracılığıyla üniversitelerin potansiyel ilerleme alanlarını belirlemelerine yardımcı olmaktır. Dünyada üniversite sıralamasında farklı kurumlar tarafından farklı göstergeler kullanılmaktadır. Bu kurumlardan biri olan University Ranking by Academic Performance (URAP)’ın kullandığı beş temel gösterge makale sayısı, atıf sayısı, toplam bilimsel doküman sayısı, doktora öğrenci oranı ve öğretim üyesi başına düşen öğrenci sayısıdır. Bu göstergelerden hangisinin daha önemli görüldüğü ve göstergelerin önem derecelerine göre sıralamasının nasıl olacağı bu çalışmanın ana problemi olmuştur. Birden çok göstergenin birbiri ile kıyaslanarak önem sıralamasını belirlemede çok kriterli karar verme yöntemlerinden yararlanılabilmektedir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, bu beş temel göstergenin önem sıralamasını bulanık analitik hiyerarşi prosesi (AHP) ile belirlemektir. Çalışmanın karar vericileri öğretim üyeleridir. Değerlendirmeler, bulanık AHP’ ye uygun karşılaştırma matrisini içeren bir anket yardımıyla elde edilmiştir. Bulanık AHP’den

  • Russian Software Industry
    2019 Russian software industry 16-th Annual Survey With support from RUSSOFT Association APKIT Association 2019 Dear colleagues, We bring to your notice the results of the annual (by this time the 16th!) survey of the software development export industry in Russia which as ever has been conducted by RUSSOFT Association. In February-April 2019, we surveyed 175 market players (it is a record throughout the entire period of survey!). Additionally, we studied various sources of information and received expert assessments from dozens of directors of software developer companies. Last year was marked by a significant growth of sales of Russian software industry on the Russian IT market, particularly of software development services. An important factor which had an impact on the growth of domestic market was a real digital transformation process deeply felt by Russian economy. A deepening in the geopolitical conflict between Russia and the USA results in reduction of the share of the US and the EU markets in the total volume of foreign sales of Russian software and of software development services, at the same time the confidence in the future promotes a large rise of companies which aim at coming in these markets over the next two years. Foreign sales of Russia have slightly increased on emerging markets, particularly in African countries. In the developing world Russia proved capable of providing alternative solutions in the security sphere, de facto offering these countries access to the “Digital sovereignty”. The volume of foreign sales of software and of software development services of Russian companies grew by 10% and reached $9.7 billion.
