Ranking

As globalization brings about rapid change in all aspects of research and development, international competition and collaboration have become high-priority items on the agenda of most universities around the world. In this climate of competition and collaboration, ranking universities in terms of their performance has become significantly important.

In globalization process, all universities need to know where they stand among other universities, so that they can evaluate their current academic performance. Several ranking systems have been proposed since 2003, including ARWU-Jiao Tong (China), Leiden (The Netherlands), TIMES (United Kingdom), and Webometrics (Spain) which rank universities worldwide based on various criteria. The use of bibliometric data obtained from open-access and credible information resources such as the ISI (Information Sciences Institute) and Google Scholar has contributed to the objectivity of these ranking systems. Najafabad Branch - Azad University is one of the most distinguished azad universities of Iran that ranks first to third among azad universities in country.
