Abstract
In this study, a comparative bibliometric analysis of the research performance assessment of certain academic organizations in India is presented over a period of 35 years, using Thomson Reuters InCites research evaluation tool. Various aspects of research performance are assessed using bibliometrics analysis. Firstly, at
the national level, India’s (and other BRIC countries’) trends in output and India’s global share of output in
selected scientific fields over time are presented. Secondly, at the institutional level, India’s selected top
academic institutions and universities are assessed upon their national share of output, change in normalized
field performance over time, normalized performance in the field they publish the most and what is the
impact of their international collaborations on average citation rates. Additionally, a case study on the
international collaborations of the Jadavpur University over the past 20 years is presented.
