The other day, news came from London, the capital of Great Britain, that the Turkmen State Institute of Architecture and Construction was included in the influence rating of the «Times Higher Education organization». All over the world, the indicators by which this organization displays its evaluation results on the activities of higher education institutions are considered the most objective, prestigious and authoritative.
Each university included in the rating list is informed in advance about which indicators and criteria will be used to display the estimated results of the university's activities. As agreed, the university, in this case our Institute of Architecture and Construction, through the appropriate portal for inclusion in the rating List, provided the «Times Higher Education» organization with information on pre-negotiated parameters.
It is worth noting that, among other things, the «Times Higher Education» rating is a kind of performance table in which higher education institutions are evaluated in all major areas of activity. This includes, for example, teaching, research and its impact, knowledge transfer and international perspectives.
Considering this, today we can say that the Institute of Architecture and Construction organizes distance learning and consultations among higher educational institutions of the country, including for universities of foreign countries cooperating in the field of science and education, as well as scientific and educational centers. The Institute also regularly hosts various training competitions, international Internet Olympiads, and scientific and practical conferences. Until 2024, the institute will introduce innovative teaching and research methods based on the experience of the best academic universities in the world.
The teaching staff of the institute is active in scientific activities, publishing their works in various international scientific and methodological publications. It seems that all this will be taken into account when determining the appropriate points when assessing the rating place of our institute.
