Foundation: 2005
Mission: GJU is the result of a strong commitment for close academic cooperation between Jordan and Germany. Therefore international cooperation will always remain one of the key targets of the university. Hence the first mission of the International Office is to support the internationalization of the University by developing and maintaining strong partnerships with universities mainly within Germany. Secondly we need to engage GJU’s teachers and students in educational and practical experiences internationally. The IO consults, prepares and manages this particular phase within the study career of every student in close cooperation with the Exchange Coordinators of GJU and the IOs of our partner universities. On the other hand International Office is facilitating the contribution of international students and scholars to GJU’s world of knowledge. Looking ahead the mission of International Office is to enhance GJU as a forum that is connecting culture, education and science of different countries and thus serving the societies of these countries.
Vision: Information not localized
The following data gives a quick reading on the scientific performance in the last years. The research ranking refers to the volume, impact and quality of the institution's research output. The innovation ranking is calculated on the number of patent applications of the institution and the citations that its research output receives from patents. Finally, the societal ranking is based on the number of pages of the institution's website and the number of backlinks and mentions from social networks.
The result of the evaluation of the institution can be compared to obtain a view of the country, the region to which it belongs and the institutions of the world, placing it in their respective positions.
We have divided the scientific output of the institution into 19 large areas of knowledge and the following table shows only the ranks in different territorial domains achieved by the institution in each of the areas. For an institution to have a presence in an area, it is necessary that it exceed in the last year a minimum output threshold equivalent to twice the percentage that this area represents in the world. If you need scientific indicators on these areas visit Scopus and/or SciVal.
