Conference: “Rankings and the visibility of quality outcomes in the European Higher Education Area”

After a pilot test, the U-Multirank project was made public at this conference. U-Multirank reflects the European Union’s political commitment to a university ranking that characterises multiple dimensions of institutions, so that each one can be presented as a “singular project” that is the result of its own strategic plan. U-Multirank goes beyond the concept that is implicit in other kinds of rankings, in which there is only one model of excellent university, based on research.
