Shanghai Ranking Questions Tunisian Research Standing
The article focuses on evaluating the standing of Tunisian universities in the Shanghai Global Rankings, particularly regarding their production of internationally impactful scientific research. It notes that Tunisia has universities such as Tunis El Manar and Sfax that appear in the ranking, but the real challenge is to maintain this presence and expand it—not just to appear once. The rankings are based on indicators such as the number of published research papers, highly cited research, and publications in leading scientific journals, reflecting the universities' capability to produce knowledge with a global impact. The main issue is not a lack of expertise, as Tunisia has a strong research foundation, but rather translating this potential into sustainable, globally influential scientific results. For sustained progress, Tunisia needs a long-term policy that focuses on funding research, facilitating international collaboration, achieving excellence in specific fields, and transforming some researchers into strong institutional forces—rather than dispersing resources randomly across all universities. The success of Tunisian universities in the rankings depends on their ability to produce impactful research and maintain high positions, rather than merely appearing there temporarily.
