The University of Zurich is one of the most prestigious universities in Switzerland and Europe, even in the whole world…
It is enough to know that Albert Einstein obtained his doctorate from this prestigious university…
Surprisingly, the university administration took the decision to withdraw from the ranking sites and will not submit papers for classification for next year.
From their point of view, engaging in these ranking puts pressure on universities to publish useless research (how much, not how) and debunking scientific research principles.
They found that university staff turned to be publish machine doing unnecessary doubtful publications just to gain name and fame.
So they decided to get out of this race that turns the university into a profit-making institution whose goal is to attract clients.
