Description
Summary:Analyzing the university positioning indicators in web rankings is an important topic when higher education institutions seek to enhance their internationalization level and quality in their research function. Regarding these indicators, the Latin American SCImago Research Group (SIR IBER) includes the positioning of Latin American universities with indicators grouped into research, innovation, and social. Innovation indicators include the number of patents, Innovative Knowledge and Technological Impact. The purpose of this study is to characterize the conglomerates of the universities in the TOP10 with the data supplied by the SIR IBER 2016-2017 report. As an outstanding result, four (4) clusters were formed. The first one constituted with UPS and UNAM. The second one with UNESP. The third one with UNICAMP and UFM, and finally, the last one with UFRJ, UFRGS, UBA, UNIFESP, UCHILE. Of the ten (10) analyzed, (8) are from Brazil, subtracting one (1) from Argentina and, finally, one (1) from Chile.
