Measuring productivity: Ranking papers

Measuring Productivity

Another ranking, this time it’s the 2010 Performance Ranking of Scientific Papers for World Universities, brought to you by the Higher Education and Evaluation Council of Taiwan.

So, essentially it’s just about the research as the criteria show:

The top 10:

1 Harvard
2 Stanford
3 Johns Hopkins
4 University of Washington
5 UCLA
6 Berkeley
7 MIT
8 University of Michigan
9 Toronto
10 Oxford

What does this tell us that others don’t? Not a lot.
