U-Multirank, a performance profiling tool that provides a new perspective on the international higher education landscape

Logo

On June 9, the results of the feasibility study on a new, multi-dimensional global ranking in higher education will be presented.

U-Multirank is a new international transparency tool which is multi-dimensional, multi-level and user-driven. Because of these characteristics it differs substantially from all existing higher education rankings and addresses the needs of various stakeholders in higher education.

The U-Multirank project was initiated and funded by the European Commission (DG Education and Culture) and has been carried out by a consortium of research organisations under the name CHERPA Network (consortium for higher education and research performance assessment).

During the seminar the results of the feasibility study will be presented to the Director – General for Education and Culture, Mr. Jan Truszcynski. In addition the results and characteristics of U-Multirank will be outlined and discussed and potential applications will be explored.

Due to an overwhelming interest, an additional session is organized in the afternoon. The conference will thus have two identical sessions, each being able to accommodate 150 participants. This is a free seminar.

Morning session (registration closed/fully booked)

09.30 – 12.30h

2.

Afternoon session (registration still possible)
