Serhii Nazarovets<p>Received the annual invite to THE's Global Academic Reputation Survey. 📩 To me, this feels like a game of name recognition. For example, I was asked to rank 5 universities in my field, and I didn’t recognize a single one. 🤷 I chose not to respond, but I suspect many do. As a result, rankings often reflect stereotypes or general perceptions, not real knowledge of academic excellence.</p><p><a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/AcademicIntegrity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AcademicIntegrity</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/UniversityRankings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UniversityRankings</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/HigherEducation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HigherEducation</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/ReputationMetrics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReputationMetrics</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/ResearchQuality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ResearchQuality</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/EducationMatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EducationMatters</span></a></p>
David Weir :v_enby:<p>Nope, not this year, not last year, not next year. 🙅</p><p>Rankings are bad.</p><p>Also, “you have been selected based on your record of research publication”?! You sent this to the email address I used as a doctoral researcher. It’s on about three papers published over a decade ago. Not sure I trust your methodology if that’s how you select people. 🤷</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/AcademicChatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AcademicChatter</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Rankings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Rankings</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/UniversityRankings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UniversityRankings</span></a></p>

Serhii Nazarovets<p>How do global university rankings address erroneous science, fraud, and misconduct? Currently, they don't. </p><p>👉 <a href="https://doi.org/10.1177/01655515241269499" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">doi.org/10.1177/01655515241269</span><span class="invisible">499</span></a></p><p>With rising cases of research fraud and retractions, it's crucial to adjust rankings to reflect scholarly integrity. Without penalties for misconduct, rankings risk being seen as biased and unrepresentative of the true academic landscape. 🎓 </p><p><a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/AcademicIntegrity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AcademicIntegrity</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/HigherEd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HigherEd</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.science/tags/UniversityRankings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UniversityRankings</span></a></p>
Dmitry Kochetkov<p>Finally, my review paper on university rankings has been published in Quantitative Science Studies <a href="https://doi.org/10.1162/qss_a_00317" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">doi.org/10.1162/qss_a_00317</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>.
