Four faculty members-representing all three of Baruch College's schools-made this year's list of top researchers.
Four Baruch College professors were named to Stanford University and Elsevier's "World's Top 2% Scientists" list for 2024, a prestigious ranking which identifies the most influential researchers across a broad range of scientific fields.
The list evaluated more than six million scientists around the world and encompasses researchers from more than 20 diverse disciplines.
"Baruch College is proud to see members of our faculty recognized among the world's leading researchers whose contributions are advancing the fields of social sciences, climate change, physics, information systems, and economics," said Baruch College Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Linda Essig, MFA, PhD. "This recognition exemplifies Baruch's commitment to innovative research, teaching, and collaboration-all which creates powerful and enduring learning experiences for our students."
Meet Baruch's faculty members-representing all three of the College's schools-on this year's list of top researchers:
Marxe School of Public and International Affairs
Weissman School of Arts and Sciences
Zicklin School of Business
The selection is based on citations from 2022 to the end of 2023 using Scopus data based on the top 100,000 scientists, or a percentile rank of 2 percent or above in their sub-field. The ranking utilizes metrics including an h-index, co-authorship adjustments, and a composite citation score (c-score), which considers a scientist's influence and not just their publication count.
