全球多维大学排名：用户导向与多重维度的全球高等教育与科研排名工具

U-Multirank ： A User-Driven and Multi-Dimensional Ranking Tool in Global Higher Education and Research

欧盟委员会开发的全球多维大学排名（u- Multirank)是一个全新的、立足全球的、有利于提高高等教育与科研系统透明度的工具，它致力于继承已有排名之优势同时规避已有排名之不足。U- Multirank遵循包括用户导向原则、多重维度原则、机构可比性原则、排名的多层次性原则和方法的可靠性原则在内的五个设计原则;设计了包括教学、科研、知识转换、国际化定位和地区参与在内的五个绩效维度及一系.列指标;为用户提供了在线工具以创建院校排名和领域排名两种类型的排名。试测和实施阶段的初探表明，在维度与指标的可行性、院校参与的积极性、扩大参与规模的可操作性方面，U-Multirank取得了一定的成功，并将逐步实施于全球高等教育与科研系统之中。

The multi-dimensional global university ranking (U-Multirank)，developed by the European Commission， is a new global transparency tool for higher education and research that addresses most of the major shortcomings of existing ranking instruments while incorporating their good practices. U-Multirank formulated five design principles (user-drivenness， multi-dimensionality，comparability of institutions，multi-level nature of higher education，methodological soundness)，developed five performance dimensions (teaching and learning，research，knowledge transfer，international orientation 9 and regional engagement) and a range of indicators^ provided its users with online functionality to create two general types of rankings (institutional rankings and field-based rankings). The pilot test and the first implementation experiences demonstrated that，in terms of the feasibility of the dimensions and indicators，the institutional interest in participating，and the operational feasibility of up-scaling， U-Multirank is successful and is ready to be implemented in global higher education and research.
