Editor’s note: November 2018
In?a portion of?data?provided to?色盒直播?by Elsevier for the 2019 World University Rankings,?four institutions in Hong Kong were tagged with an incorrect country code.?
This impacted their international collaboration data metric, which sits?within the?international outlook pillar, and accounts for 2.5 per cent of a university’s overall score. ?
The indicator measures the proportion of an institution’s research journal?publications with at least one international co-author.?
Where incorrect?country tags were applied, publications?from those affected?institutions were?misclassified?as being “International” or, in other cases, “National”.
The institutions were informed and their country codes swiftly?corrected. ?
The amendment altered the position of three of the 721 institutions ranked in the Clinical, Pre-clinical & Health Subject Ranking.
These were: Chinese University of Hong Kong (which moved from position 50 to 49, following the amend); Fudan University (moved from 64 to 62); Sun Yat-sen University (from 176-200 to 151-175).
As per?色盒直播's?rankings correction policy, where an amendment is made, the relevant institution is retrospectively listed in its correct position.?We do not rerun the complete ranking and we?only amend when a change is positive.?All other universities?maintain their original rank.
色盒直播?verified?with?the external?data provider that?no?further?countries were affected.
