With Project 5-100 Russia has ambitious goals to
improve its competitive position
Five of the best Russian universities to enter the top 100 of the leading global
university rankings by 2020

Times Higher Rankings switched to Scopus
In November 2014, Times Higher Education and Elsevier announced they
are partnering to provide the data behind the THE’s flagship World
University Rankings and its global university performance analyses.

How Scopus and Scopus data support the researcher
workflow
Find out what already exists in the global world of research output
Determine how to differentiate your research topic and find new ideas
Decide what, where and with whom to partner or collaborate with
Identify and analyze which journals to submit your article; get
published
Track impact of your research; monitor global research trends
Manage your career through citation counts and h-index (and other metrics)

What content does Scopus include?
57.3M records from 22,025 serial titles and 85,540 books
21.4M pre 1996 records | 35.7M post 1995 records
•

•
•
•
Content from > 5,000 publishers
“Articles in Press” from > 3,750 titles
Titles from 105 different countries in all
geographical regions
40 “local” languages covered
More than 2,800 Gold Open Access journals
indexed
Scopus is ideal compared to other products because it has the broadest
coverage of global, curated, relevant research, with smart, simple tools to
help track, analyze and visualize research.

Scopus covers different source types for a reason
JOURNALS
• Timely
• Peer-reviewed
(formal research)
All subject fields, but
typical fields with high
ratio of journal
publication: chemical,
biological, health sciences
etc.
CONFERENCES
BOOKS
• Preliminary research
(can be a bit less
formal)
• Newer ideas
• Thorough analysis of
a specific topic
Mainly of importance in
Computer Science and
Engineering-related
subject fields
Mainly of importance in
Social Sciences and the
Arts & Humanities
Different source types are added to ensure that coverage, discoverability,
profiles and impact measurement for research in all subject fields is
accounted for in Scopus.

High quality journals due to selection by the independent
Content Selection & Advisory Board (CSAB)
The CSAB is chosen for their expertise in specific subject areas; many have (journal) Editor experience
Focus on quality through content selection by the independent CSAB, because:
•
•
•
•
Provide accurate and relevant search results for users
No dilution of search results by irrelevant or low quality content
Support that Scopus is recognized as authoritative
Support confidence that Scopus “reflects the truth”
UNAM
ERA (Australia)

Successful journal selection is a combination of
different aspects
Quality
Scientific quality of the science
published, but also publishing
format and (ethical) standards
Is the
(international)
diversity of
authorship and
editorial board in
line with aims &
scope
Successful
journal
selection
Diversity
Is the content type
and subject
relevant to the
(international) user
base of Scopus
Relevancy

Transparent Scopus selection criteria for serial content
1. All titles should meet all minimum criteria in order to be considered for Scopus review:
Peer-review
English
abstracts
Regular
publication
Roman script
references
Pub. ethics
statement
2. Eligible titles are reviewed by the Content Selection & Advisory Board according to a
combination of 14 quantitative & qualitative selection criteria grouped in 5 categories:
Journal Policy
Quality of Content
Journal Standing
Regularity
Online Availability
3. As a primary publisher and information aggregator, Elsevier understands the needs of
Authors, Editors and Publishers and provides resources to support the community:
Review comments
from CSAB
FAQs
Publication ethics
resources
Publishing
services

All Scopus journals have journal metrics measuring
citation performance
Elsevier Journal Metrics strategy:
Provide the most complete picture
possible of how a journal is
performing, and of how it is
perceived. It is impossible for a single
metric to do everything, so we offer a
“basket of metrics”
