  1. The fact that 10 years after @MsPhelps and I included equity in our working definition of #OpenScience in the form an 'open to participation' pillar (see im2punt0.wordpress.com/2017/03) we are now at #FOR2026 conference discussing how to include equity in OS means that this change moves at glacial speed and there may be strong incentives against it. One of these might be #universityrankings with their huge inbuilt colonial legacy.

  2. The latest QS World #UniversityRankings by Subject place us among the world’s top 20 universities in #engineering & technology, as well as #NaturalSciences: go.tum.de/261445 👏

  7. Happy to see the statement on #universityrankings by the International Association of Universities #IAU, the largest and most international university network: iau.global/news/iau-note-on-ra. Sort of proud to have played a role in that. Moving away from rankings, step by step. I look forward to seeing similar statements from #LERU, #TheGuild, #AURORA, #YERUN and others. Solidarity among institutions is crucial amidst authoritarianism and commercial capture.

  12. "Many of the loudest Open Science advocates are deeply embedded in the very systems they critique such as traditional publishing, prestige-driven academia and grant-dependent research cultures. They speak the language of reform while continuing to “play the game” remarkably well. Researchers who sit on advisory boards talk about preprints but then celebrate publishing their latest Nature paper"

  13. @ndocist "This business model has created what can be described as a sophisticated data harvesting operation disguised as academic assessment." #universityrankings #rankings

  14. Citing openness and validity issues, Sorbonne University in France decides to no longer supply data to the THE-ranking and thus get delisted. A courageous step (actually it's a bad sign that we have a situation where this requires courage). This is now the 4th major European university to take this step, after Utrecht, Zürich and Lorraine. #SorbonneUniversité. #universityrankings sorbonne-universite.fr/en/news

  15. ¿Las mejores #universidades del mundo? La trampa de los 'rankings' que miden la #calidad de los centros
    El 'QS World #UniversityRankings' ha incluido esta semana a cuatro universidades españolas entre las 200 mejores del mundo
    Docentes critican que esos 'rankings' miden factores que no tienen que ver con la calidad de la docencia y que fomentan la competitividad

  16. Our #students have once again rated us very highly in the latest CHE #UniversityRankings! 🥳 Around 120,000 students from German-speaking #universities evaluated the quality of teaching and study conditions in their #degreeprograms: go.tum.de/192018

  22. 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.

  23. Australia's top university just hit its lowest spot in the rankings in 21 years. (But hey, who needs academic excellence when you can rake in profits from foreign students, right? ) Take a look at where the others placed. #HigherEducation #UniversityRankings #Priorities

  26. How do global university rankings address erroneous science, fraud, and misconduct? Currently, they don't.

    👉 doi.org/10.1177/01655515241269

    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. 🎓
