Publication activities

The publication activities of university lecturers, researchers and PhD students is an important element in the criteria for assessing universities and faculties. It is the primary means of presenting research findings, sharing knowledge obtained from scientific research via academic and specialist journals and of directly presenting and comparing research findings at scientific conferences, symposiums and seminars with those of other researchers working in the same field. Assessing the Faculty’s publication activities is not an end but is contingent to the allocation of financial resources to higher education institutions and as such has become one of the Faculty’s most important tasks. Lists of publications are required for accreditation purposes, for the submission of project and grant applications, for obtaining qualifications and in recent years for the allocation of public higher education grants from the budget of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the SR.
