The pilot version of the rating was presented in 2017. The rating consists of the total weight of the indicators of the groups: 45% for the group "Education", 25% for the group "Science" and 30% for the group "University and Society". For each indicator the score of the university was calculated, characterizing its position according to competitors.
Only objective criteria approved by international experts were used to compile the rating. The sources of information were open data from the official websites of the universities and national authorities, as well as data from different independent international sources.
