UlSTU entered the Webometrics Ranking of World Universities

...
Webometrics Ranking of World Universities is a ranking system for world universities. The ranking is published by Cybermetrics Lab Webometrics, a research group of the Spanish National Research Council based in Madrid. The rating appeared in 2004 and is updated twice a year. Today, this rating is considered one of the most authoritative.
The purpose of the rating is to increase the presence of academies and research institutes in the Internet space and to promote open publication of the results of scientific activities.

Methods and approaches for evaluating educational institutions are in line with the Berlin Principles for ranking higher education institutions. These principles have been developed, agreed upon and validated as the basis for comparative studies of national higher education systems by the International Ranking Expert Group. According to these principles, there are more than 20,000 higher education institutions in the world today. From this worldwide database, 12,000 are included in the Webometrics ranking.

Webometrics makes it possible to judge the national system of higher education not by individual leading universities, but by the totality of its constituent universities. The ratio of the number of universities included in the rating to the total number of higher education institutions in the national education system is the most important indicator of the scale of the national higher education system, its integrity and readiness to accept new educational technologies.
