  1. Raising the Profile of Indonesian Universities through Research Andy Teo, Account Manager Elsevier Science & Technology a.teo@elsevier.com

  2. The Research Landscape • Crossing of national boundaries • Highly mobile researchers, ideas & technologies • Need for prestige • Quality assessment & ranking systems drives global engagement / competition • Stem brain drain in public universities & attract full fee paying students in private universities • Public & private pressures on research investment

  3. What drives research? • Competition • Who leads, who follows? • Scramble for scarce resources e.g. first to publish, funding, PhD students, successful patents, spin-off enterprises • Collaboration • Research networks & clusters in multidisciplinary areas to solve complex problems • Aided by instant global communications, data transfer, rapid exchange & critique, & highly interactive

  4. What drives research? • Regulation • Governments, quality agencies, funding councils • Need for accountability, ethics • Innovation • Moving research ideas into Innovation • Technology transfer – new products or improve on existing • To tackle big questions – climate change, environmental sustainability, poverty. Or else why invest public money? • Outcomes to focus on economic & cultural development, social betterment

  5. We have a problem… • Common issue faced by governments, policy makers & senior administrators: There are too many similar universities, employing similar people with similar backgrounds, coming up with similar ideas, producing similar things & similar quality.

  6. Raising profile of Indonesian University Research • How? • Medium of Communication = Primarily Scientific Journals • To increase prominence: • Internationalize local Indonesian Journals • Publish more in International Journals

  7. Internationalization of Indonesian Journals For a local Journal to be successful, it cannot be too local.

  8. Internationalize Local Indonesian Journals • Improve Quality of Local Journals • Partner Regional or International journals • Invite Scientists as Contributing Authors or Editorial Board members * • Raise Author’s ability to publish • Incentives, Awards & Workshops • Tools for Research Excellence & Productivity * • Electronic platforms • Visibility to Global Audience e.g. Google, Open Source platforms, Scopus etc *

  9. Partner Regional or International journals

  10. NO STRANGER TO ACADEMIC RESEARCH * • Article submissions：500,000+ Organize editorial boards Launch new specialist journals • 200,000 referees • 1 million refereereports per year Solicit and manage submissions • Hundreds of new editors per year • 10-20 new journals per year Archive and promote Managepeer review • 40-90% of articles rejected • 2,000+ journals • 9 million articles • 7,000 editors • 70,000 editorial board members • 6.5 million author/publisher communications per year Publish anddisseminate Edit andprepare • 20 million researchers • 6,000+ institutions • 180+ countries • 240 million+ downloads per year • 2.5 million print pages per year Production • 300,000 new articles produced per year • 180 years of back issues scanned, processed and data-tagged

  11. Raise Author’s ability to publish:Incentives, Awards & Workshops

  12. 26% Others Largest Collection of electronic Scientific information * Research Support Tools Share of Journal Articles Published Our Scientific Disciplines Environmental Sciences Earth Sciences Social Sciences Elsevier Life sciences Maths & computer science 26% Others Physics Wiley-Blackwell Health sciences Chemistry & Chemical Engineering APS IOP Springer IEEE Taylor & Francis Materials Science & Engineering AIP ACS Wolters Kluwer Over one million English language research articles published globally each year 300,000 English language research articles published with Elsevier today

  13. Electronic platforms

  14. What is Scopus? 16,700+ titles STM & Social sciences Focused web information SCOPUS Repositories Academic library sources • Largest Citations and Abstract database – 16,700+ sources from 4,000 publishers • Comprehensive Scientific, Technical, Medical and Social Sciences coverage. Arts & Humanities • Quality Web Sources – Institutional Repositories • Patent searching from 5 major patent offices • Citations Analysis of your researchers, institution, journal, research area Intuitive interface, Citations Analysis

  15. 16,700 32% 20% 31% 17% Breadth of coverage - Across subject areas De Moya (Scientometrics 2007): “The coverage provided by Scopus is balanced in terms of subject areas when compared with Ulrich’s core” • Health Sc. • (100% Medline) • Nursing • Dentistry • … • Social Sc. • Psychology • Economics • Business • … • Physical Sc. • Chemistry • Physics • Engineering • … • Life Sciences • Neurosc. • Pharmacol. • Biology • …

  17. Content & Selection Advisory Board (CSAB) • Board comprises about 30 scientists & subject specialists around the world • External & Independent to work with Scopus Team for: • Product enhancements • Recommendations influencing overall direction of Scopus • Content growth strategy to ensure Scopus stays international, current & relevant

  18. Future Directions and Next Steps Productivity Tools for Growth and Development

  19. A Complete Picture Of An Institution’s Research Strengths Each bubble represents a group of clusters wherein your institution has a distinctive competency Size of the bubble reflects the size of the output in each cluster Position within the circle indicates the interdisciplinary mix

  20. In these research disciplines, which are growing faster than the other disciplines, your institutions holds the number 1 position. Showing Discipline Growth And Your Relative Position Relative Growth Rate Market growth indicates if distinctive competency has higher or lower than average market growth Relative article share reflects your institution's position vis-à-vis the biggest competitor Relative Article Share

  21. Identifying Top Researchers In Growing Disciplines DC 85 Top researchers within this discipline who can strengthen your relative position

  22. Primary Source full text articles Over 9 million full-text articles More than 2,000 journals Navigation of global scientific information Covers > 16,700 journals, including APAC sources > 4,000 publishers Next Steps…

  29. So how are we doing?

  30. 42 15% 30% • 42 Age that researchers get their first grant from National Institute of Health • 15% Approval rate for National Science Foundation research grants to new researchers • 30% Time researchers spend working on grant applications

  31. The Solution: Funding Intelligence Tool (FIT) • FIT provides three key benefits: • Comprehensive funding content: Stop worrying you’re missing out on opportunities • Targeted Recommendations: Find guidance on where to apply to • Funding Intelligence: Enabling performance measurement, benchmarking andstrategic planning FIT enables universities to better compete and increase grant income

  32. WHERE IS THE MONEY? Recommendations preview Automated recommendations matched on pre-populated profiles (Scopus) “Pre-population of publication history [would be] a big winner with researchers – they hate doing it manually.”– Director Office of Sponsored Research
