We use the Multiple Factor Analysis (MFA) to built five classes of Latinamerican Universities from three known university rankings. These classes distinguish among universities with high level of specialization and low academic output, universities of excelence with low Scientific Leadership, universities with no good reputation and productive staff, universities with good reputation and few doctoral staff, and productive universities with high impact and low indicators of international collaboration. The factors produced by the MFA reveal some paradoxes corroborated in the classification by the fact that they counterpose the level of specialization vs. Productivity, the scientific leadership vs. impact and quality of the output, and they reveal too the possible inconvenience to include judging criteria, which result independent of leadership and impact. |
