The Faculty Scholarly Productivity Index™ (FSP Index) is a method for evaluating doctoral programs at Research Universities (both Carnegie Research Extensive and Research Intensive), based on a set of statistical algorithms developed by Lawrence Martin, PhD and Anthony Olejniczak. The FSP Index measures the annual productivity of faculty on several factors including:
* Publications (books and journal articles)
* Citations of journal publications
* Federal Research Funding
* Awards and Honors
The FSP analysis creates, at the discipline level, a scale based on the cumulative scoring of a program's faculty using these measures compared against national standards. Each program can then be compared to the national mean z-score.
Individual program scores can then be combined to demonstrate the quality of the scholarly work within broad fields as well as the entire university. When analyzed over time, a full picture of the direction of the program or university research can be realized.
By compiling the individual faculty activity into departmental indexes, one can truly assess the research strength of a university.
The FSP Index is unique in its focus on concrete data relating to faculty scholarly productivity. The FSP Index contains no reputational assessments, and is unrivaled in the depth and detail of its content - even compiling data in areas where other assessments have found difficulty (e.g. book publications).
The FSP Index is being produced on an annual basis. The 2004 and 2005 Reports are currently available. Order yours today!
The FSP Index is an ideal tool for use in:
* program assessment and evaluation
* strategic planning initiatives
* observing trends in faculty productivity
* and much more!

In June 2006 the IT trade magazine Dataquest published its third annual ranking of technology schools with a strong information technology focus. Not surprisingly, the Indian Institutes of Technology (IITs) featured prominently, followed closely by the Indian Institutes of Information Technology (IIIT), and the National Institutes of Technology (NITs, formerly RECs), among a sprinkling of others. It should be noted that the criteria, indicators and weightings for the 2006 ranking are not the same for 2005, and a year-on-year comparison should be conducted with that in mind.

India Today — AC Nielsen-ORG-MARG
Possibly the longest running ranking in India, the annual Top 10 Colleges report by the news weekly India Today rates the nation’s colleges in the arts, science, commerce, law engineering and medicine. Not unlike its U.S. equivalent, U.S. News & World Report, the India Today college ranking has been open to heavy criticism over the years, but has nonetheless found itself occupying a position of relative (and many would say unwarranted) influence over the decision-making process of prospective university and college students.

Business Today, AC Nielsen ORG-MARG
Business Today, a news weekly owned by the India Today Group, published its fourth annual ranking of management schools in 2006. Based exclusively on the results of opinion polls and surveys sent out to students, recruiters and human resource managers, the 2006 rankings produced something of a surprise result in that a non-IIM branded school — Symbiosis Institute of Business Management (SIBM), Pune — took fourth spot ahead of some of the highly prestigious Indian Institutes of Management.

Webometrics
I will like to point out a useful web site which shows the commitment of the institutions to Web publication and to the worldwide inititive favouring Open Access to knowledge.
Warning
In the words of Webometrics 'The aim of this project is not to rank the institutions according to quality of the education provided nor their academic prestige, so it should not be used for comparing them or as a guide for choosing university by candidate students.'
