English abstract

The increasing complexity of the University, enhanced by its commoditization, makes more complex the information about the knowledge managed by, whether to obtain or to contextualize and redirect to its different users. Universities’ rankings, despite the criticism they receive, they appear as contextualized information tools for each user type. In this sense, it is detailed the main goals and details of the creation and implementation of the multidimensional global ranking design and testing project, funded by the European Commission on Education.

Spanish abstract

La creciente complejidad de la Universidad, acrecentada por su mercantilización, provoca que la información acerca del conocimiento gestionado por ésta sea también más compleja, tanto de obtener como de contextualizar y redirigir a sus diferentes usuarios. Los rankings de universidades, pese a las críticas que reciben, aparecen como instrumentos de información contextualizada para cada tipo de usuario. En este sentido se detallan los principales objetivos y pormenores de la creación y puesta en marcha del proyecto de diseño y testeo de un ranking multidimensional de cobertura mundial, financiado por la Comisión Europea en Educación.
