13. The Competency Concept – Emerging vs Distinctive An Emerging Competency is a network of article clusters that are grouped together based on the unique publication profile of an institution An Emerging Competency (EC) becomes a Distinctive Competency (DC) if: There presents a Significant Large Field of Research The number of papers published globally in that cluster meets the minimum threshold Publication Leader KU is ranked top in the field by the number of published articles Reference Leader KU is ranked top in the field by the number of highly cited articles Innovation Leader KU is citing more recent work compared relative to the average for the competency OR AND There presents a form of Leadership
