HUST ranks 6th nationally with 113 Highly Cited Chinese Researchers

Apr 7, 2023

On March 28, Elsevier unveiled its annual Highly Cited Chinese Researchers 2022 list. More than 100 researchers were selected from seven universities on the Chinese mainland. Huazhong University of Science and Technology ranked 6th with 113 researchers featured on the list, an increase of 12 from the previous year.

 


The list takes Scopus, the globally authoritative citation and index database, as the statistical source, and adopts the selection methodology designed by the Shanghai Ranking. The list features 5,216 globally influential Chinese researchers from 523 universities, enterprises, or scientific research institutions, and covers 84 first-class disciplines across 10 subject categories.

 

In recent years, HUST has made earnest efforts to bring in talent from home and abroad. The university has employed over 1,500 full-time teachers since 2012. In 2022, it recruited three strategic scientists as double-employed academicians and nearly 80 candidates from national talent programs. The Digital Material Forming faculty group has been listed in the second batch of “Huang Danian-style Teaching Teams” approved by the Ministry of Education.
