4 Our scientific environment: competition & how to survive Assoc. Prof. Jitse P. van Dijk MD PhD Scientific Director Graduate School Kosice Institute for Society and Health Medical Faculty P. J. Šafárik University, Košice www.kish.upjs.sk

5 Outline 1Rankings 2How to become competitive? concentrate on certain research topics publish internationally reorganise the PhD structure educate PhD students research skills systematically selection promising students at an early stage of their studies find international partners 3The role of governmental financing 4Summary www.kish.upjs.sk

6 Rankings increasingly important universities are compared SCI, SSCI and A&HCI output

7 Criteria Academic Ranking World Universities (Shanghai) * Alumni institutions winning a Nobel prize10% * Staff institutions winning a Nobel prize20% * Frequently cited researchers in 21 broad subject categories20% * Articles published in Nature and Science20% * Articles in the Science Citation Index-expanded and 20% the Social Science Citation Index * Per capita academic performance per institution10% http://www.arwu.org
