In the latest edition of the Research.com ranking, Bialystok University of Technology came off very well in four areas among Polish universities.

In electronics and telecommunications, we came in second, in mechanical and aerospace engineering – fourth, in mathematics – sixth, and in material engineering – ninth. In the area of electronics and telecommunications, only 4 Polish universities were classified, in mechanical and aerospace engineering only 6 Polish universities, in material engineering 13 universities, and in mathematics 9 universities.

It should be emphasized that the very classification in the ranking is a great distinction, because in order to be ranked you need to meet the conditions, based only on independent bibliometric databases. The classification in the ranking is independent of the university. This year 38 Polish universities were ranked (one more than a year ago) and Bialystok University of Technology was ranked 20th. This is a promotion of 5 places compared to last year and the best place among Podlasie universities.

The ranking of the best universities was created on the basis of the analysis of the profiles of 166,880 scientists. In individual disciplines, the following were tested accordingly:

electronics and electrical engineering – 28,549 scientists,
mechanical and aerospace engineering – 37,769 scientists,
materials engineering – 27,059 scientists,
mathematics – 11 091 scientists.

The position of a university within a given discipline is based on data combined with a wide range of data sources, including OpenAlex and CrossRef. Bibliometric data for the estimation of indicators based on citations were obtained on 21 November 2023. The position in the ranking is based on the sum of D-indices (Discipline H-index) of all scientists associated with a given institution. The D-index includes only works and citation data for the examined discipline.
