Evaluation of scientific activity 2022–2025

The evaluation of scientific activity is conducted within the framework of disciplines in which at least 12 staff members (in full-time equivalents) are engaged in research. All academic staff employed in research or research-and-teaching positions are subject to evaluation.

Based on the evaluation results, individual disciplines are assigned scientific categories: A+, A, B+, B, or C. These categories are of key importance for:

  • the authority to conduct degree programs and doctoral schools,
  • the authority to confer academic degrees and titles,
  • the amount of the subsidy received

Evaluation criteria

Criterion I – scientific or artistic level of activity
This includes, among other things:

  • scientific articles (from the list and outside the list),
  • monographs, edited monographs, and chapters in monographs,
  • granted patents for inventions.

Criterion II – financial outcomes of research and development activities
The following are taken into account:

  • funds secured for research projects through national, EU, and international competitions (NCN, NCBR, NPRH, and others),
  • commercialization of research results,
  • scientific work carried out on behalf of entities outside the higher education and science sector.

Criterion III – impact of scientific activity on society and the economy
The assessment is based on case studies that document the actual translation of research into social, economic, and cultural functioning (e.g., public administration, healthcare, culture).
