University “Isa Boletini” in Mitrovica (UIBM) is ranked second among public universities in Kosovo, in terms of citation criteria in Google Scholar profiles in the webometrics rankings announced in January 2022. In this ranking, UIBM has emerged second after the University of Prishtina, with 1044 citations.

The ranking is based on data collected during the period 10-20 January 2022, and in the version published in webometrics, only universities are listed with over 1000 citations. Among the 4800 world universities, UP and UIBM are the only public universities in Kosovo that are in the current published version.

According to webometrics, citations were collected from 210 top profiles – the main profiles of each university so as to allow size-independent comparisons. The first twenty profiles of the list have been excluded to improve the representation, while the rest of the top profiles have been added to the number of citations and the institutions are ranked in descending order according to this indicator.

Non-individual profiles that are at the top of the most cited profiles (magazines, departments, groups, conferences) included in the 210 main scores are penalized as profiles outside the institution and the number of their citations is equal to zero.
