Abstract
Higher education ranking systems (HERSs) were developed with the goal of providing accurate information to allow global comparisons of the quality of institutions. In the last years, HERs have widened their stakeholders and, being considered as a means for assessing the overall performance of a university, they can affect the perceived quality and the related reputation. World university rankings are one of the main factors inspiring prospective student choices and scholar mobility across domestic system, and especially abroad. Moreover, rankings can provide a steer for public policies, decision-makers and funding agencies. In this paper, a comparison among the AVA Periodic Accreditation final judgements and the results of the comparable international rankings including Italian universities is proposed.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
