The 2017 edition of the U-Ranking has been published

The UPC retains its leadership in Innovation and Technological Development

The U-Ranking, powered by Ivie with the collaboration of Fundación BBVA, aims to create a set of synthetic indicators to assess the Spanish university system.

The indicators refer to three university dimensions: Teaching, Research and Innovation and Technological Development. Each dimension is in turn divided into four areas: Resources, Output, Quality and Internationalization.

The U-Ranking offers two types of classifications. The first, called U-Ranking, ranks universities according to their productivity. The second, called U-Ranking Volume, classifies universities by the volume of their results.

In productivity, the UPC retains its leadership in Innovation and Technological Development. According to volume, it ranks for the first time in the top position in Research and in Innovation and Technological Development.

In the general ranking, the UPC is the second most productive university in the Spanish system.
