UNSW School of Civil & Environmental Engineering achieves global recognition with 44 researchers featured on prestigious lists of the world's most-cited scholars, highlighting the widespread impact of their influential research.
Forty-four School of Civil & Environmental Engineering current and past researchers appear on the latest Stanford-Elsevier lists of the world’s most-cited scholars. For so many of our staff to be included on this prestigious list is a powerful testament to the reach and impact of the research taking place at the School.
Stanford’s list focuses on impact (citations) rather than productivity (number of publications), although numbers of paper are also provided. The final selection is based on the world’s top-cited 100,000 scientists by a composite score (with and without self-citations) or a percentile rank of 2% or above in the researcher’s primary sub-field.
Separate lists are created for career-long (up to end of 2022) and for single recent year (2022) impact.
The School is well represented in each list, with both long serving professorial staff and exciting emerging researchers featured.
38 CVEN researchers in top 2% most-cited scholars globally, based on 2022 citations.
