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.

比較符合學術界對加拿大大學學術水平的印象。ISI 的 Web of Science網站就是國內通常所說的SCI論文檢索網站，是目前世界上最有影響力的學術論文評價機構。

高水平學術論文數量和被引次數是評價一個學校學術水平最重要的指標。從學術論文上來看，UT, UBC, Mcgill 執加拿大學術研究之牛耳：

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

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

UBC:
研究生數量： 8,000 Faculty數量:?

McGill:
研究生數量： 9,160 Faculty數量:1,485
