Robin van IJperen European Commission IREG Conference, Astana16 June 2009 Towards a Multi-dimensional Ranking: the View of the European Commission on Transparency in Missions and Performances of Higher Education Institutions

2 A. EU Context: the Modernisation Agenda for Universities B. Overview of EU-supported transparency initiatives C. Towards a Multi-dimensional Global Ranking Outline

3 EU-context Modernisation agenda for Universities

4 Main messages of the Modernisation agenda: (1) Modern universities should dare to diversify on the basis of their strenghts. Not all institutions need the same mix between education and research. The diverse missions and performances of our universities should be made transparent to all stakeholders.

5 Main messages of the Modernisation agenda: (2) More transparency will make it easier for students, teachers and researchers to make an informed choice where and what to study and where to work. More transparency would also serve university management to better position themselves and improve their developments strategies, quality and performances!

6 EU supported transparency initiatives in higher education CHEPS study « Mapping diversity of university profiles » European Data Collection project Expertgroup on Asessment of University based Research Assessment of Higher Education Learning Outcomes (AHELO) Pilot project on design and testing of a multi-dimensional global ranking

7 Towards a Multi-dimensional Global University Ranking Various rankings have their own purpose and target groups (Berlin principles) Shortcomings existing rankings: - tendency to focus on research in hard sciences and ignore performances of universities in other areas like humanities, social sciences teaching quality, innovation, internationalisation and community outreach. - focus on entire institutions, not on programmes/disciplines Therefore desirable that, based on existing initiatives, instruments will be developed which enable a multi-dimensional ranking.

8 Chracteristics of multi-dimensional ranking to be developed and tested Multi-dimensional and user-driven (different users and target groups can choose an own « smart ranking ») Independent (not run by governments or universities) Global (covering institutions in Europe and other continents)

9 Planning of the project End of May 2009: Start of project End of December 2009: Final Report design phase January 2010: Start testing phase End of May 2011: Final Report testing phase
