The rankings of scientific leaders of WUM (200 items) and young scientific leaders of WUM (105 items) are already available. They were prepared for the activities in the years 2022-2025 and, in case of departments, for the academic year 2024/2025.
Scientific leaders
Two ranking lists were developed:
- A list including all employees being counted as number N at WUM as of 28 February 2026.
- A list of young scientists – includes employees who meet the above criteria and do not hold a doctoral degree, or have held the degree for less than 7 years.
The ranking was compiled based on points obtained for publications, scientific and research and development projects funded by external sources (awarded through competitive proceedings) as well as patents and utility models. The position on the list is determined by the total number of points earned.
Detailed rules for ranking employees are found on the Department of Science website

Ranking of departments
The ranking of departments is based on the achievements of employees counted as number N at WUM at the end of a given academic year (i.e., 30 September 2025). Points are earned for:
- publications (journal articles and monographs),
- projects, including scientific research or development, financed through
competitive proceedings, - patents.
The position of the department in the ranking is determined by the result calculated in accordance with the following formula: the sum of points earned by the employees of the department/the number of employees included in the ranking.
