Mission: The IAB creates scientific bases for informed decisions in labour market policy. We conduct research into the labour market and the professional world to advance debates in science, public, politics, and administration. Financed by public funds, we are committed to the common good. We contribute to sustainable development in economy and society – with the goal of constantly improving people's living and working conditions. At the same time, we aim for scientific excellence. We strive for new insights, respond to societal changes, tap into the most diverse data sources, and develop research approaches for our topics. We work empirically, free from any bias, and scientifically independently. A plurality of methods, interdisciplinarity, and networking are a matter of course for us. We eagerly participate in scientific discourse in Germany and abroad. We share data and research results with the scientific community and the public. In doing so, we always universally guarantee data protection. We offer our employees numerous opportunities for further advancement through talent development and a wide range of qualification programmes. In our actions, we pay close attention to transparency, participation, respectful interaction with each other, the compatibility of job and family, and sustainability. We stand for equal opportunity, inclusion, and diversity.
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.
| Area | World | Western Europe | EU-27 | OECD | Germany |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Business, Management and Accounting | 1151st | 429th | 354th | 757th | 64th |
| Economics, Econometrics and Finance | 683rd | 262nd | 208th | 453rd | 40th |
| Social Sciences + | 1485th | 540th | 450th | 1035th | 82nd |
These are the journals used by the institution's researchers to publish their work in the last year. The size of each circle represents the value of the SJR of the publication, and its spatial position represents its subject matter.
This visualizatión allows you to identify the knowledge areas where the institution has published, recognize the prestige of the scientific journals in which the institution knowledge has been published, and identify predominant scientific communities.
