UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO TOPS RANKINGS OF CANADIAN RESEARCH UNIVERSITIES

University of Western Ontario and University of British Columbia also make strong showings

Philadelphia, PA USA-London UK - September 27, 2005 - Based on impact (or average citations per paper) and total citations, the University of Toronto is the “top performer” in multiple fields among Canadian research universities. This is according to the September/October issue of Science Watch—the bi-monthly newsletter published by Thomson Scientific, a business of The Thomson Corporation.

The Science Watch study uses the Thomson Scientific University Science Indicators to examine the research of 46 Canadian universities in 21 scientific fields spanning 2000 to 2004.

Between 2000 and 2004, the University of Toronto produced the most work—25,883 papers published in journals indexed by Thomson Scientific. The University of British Columbia produced the second highest number of papers, 14,819; while McGill University published 13,996.

n total citations, the University of Toronto topped 15 fields: chemistry; materials science; engineering; space science; mathematics; ecology/environment; clinical medicine; immunology; biology and biochemistry; molecular biology/genetics; neurosciences; pharmacology; psychology/psychiatry; education; and economics and business. The University of British Columbia ranked first in four fields: physics; geosciences; plant and animal science; and microbiology.

比较符合学术界对加拿大大学学术水平的印象。ISI 的 Web of Science网站就是国内通常所说的SCI论文检索网站，是目前世界上最有影响力的学术论文评价机构。

高水平学术论文数量和被引次数是评价一个学校学术水平最重要的指标。从学术论文上来看，UT, UBC, Mcgill 执加拿大学术研究之牛耳：

UT: 25,883 papers indexed
UBC: 14,819 papers indexed
McGill: 13,996 papers indexed

UT:
研究生在校人数： 9,500(full time) + 2,428(part time) Faculty在校人数: 3,000

UBC:
研究生数量： 8,000 Faculty数量:?

McGill:
研究生数量： 9,160 Faculty数量:1,485
