A non-academic, popularity ranking of Bulgarian university websites
The 4icu.org ranking of universities in Bulgaria is based on the statistics of institutional website use.
It is clearly explained as being a non-academic ranking, but it may nevertheless be useful as a way of assessing the international visibility of universities in Bulgaria.
The questions then arises:
Which of these universities might have staff and publication offices that would be most interested in the Research Cooperative? Those that are already well known and blessed with good internet communication skills, or those that are neither?
Forty-three universities are ranked by 4icu.org. Here are the top six:
1 New Bulgarian University, Sofia
2 Sofia University, Sofia
3 American University in Bulgaria, Blagoevgrad and other locations
4 University of National and World Economy, Sofia
5 Technical University - Sofia, Sofia and other locations
6 Plovdiv University
Which of these universities are most active in terms of academic publishing by individual researchers, and in terms of activity as publishers of academic (research, scientific, and educational) literature?
Members of this group are warmly invited to comment on anything they know about the research publishing activities of these universities (and other universities) in Bulgaria.
