Recently, Tianjin University entered the Essential Science Indicators Top 1% list of institutions in the field of Geosciences for the first time. This means that from 2011-2021, the number of TJU's citations in the field of Geosciences, as ESI defines the field, is in the top 1% globally when compared to institutions also publishing in Geosciences in the last decade.
This now brings the number of research fields that TJU has in the ESI top 1% to 12. Chemistry, Materials Science, Engineering, Physics, Cumputer Science, Environment/Ecology, Pharmacology & Toxicology, Social Sciences (General), Agricultural Sciences, Biology & Biochemistry, Clinical Medicine already occupy that space.
ESI is a compilation of performance statistics extrapolated from articles published in scholarly journals and the citations to those articles. It lists the institutions and researchers that performed within the top 1% of their research fields globally. The ESI database covers 22 broad research fields and is updated bi-monthly to cover data of the past 10 years.
