This article presents an anatomy of PhD programmes in Hellenic universities' departments of computer science/engineering from the perspective of research productivity and impact. The study aims at showing the dynamics of research conducted in computer science/engineering departments, and after recognizing weaknesses, to motivate the stakeholders to take actions that will improve competition and excellence. Beneficiaries of this investigation are the following entities: a) the departments themselves can assess their performance relative to that of other departments and then set strategic goals and design procedures to achieve them, b) supervisors can assess the part of their research conducted with PhDs and set their own goals, c) former PhDs who can identify their relative success, and finally d) prospective PhD students who can consider the efficacy of departments and supervisors in conducting high-impact research as one more significant factor in designing the doctoral studies they will follow. ✦to their key. In the rest of the article, this key will be used as the name of the respective department.

“…On the other hand, more recently published papers, as those on Ireland (Ruan and Tol, ; Tol, ), on Israel (Ben‐David, ), on Sweden (Henkerson and Waldenström, ) and on Greece (Katranidis et al . ) rely on bibliometric databases (Web of Science, Google Scholar and Scopus) and consider directly the scientific impact of each paper separately, i.e. according to how many times it has been cited by other researchers.…”

“…The advantage of this approach is that it looks directly at the merit of the paper (via its citations) rather than the 'perceived' merit of the journal. Furthermore, some of the above papers proceed further in an attempt to examine the determinants of research performance; for example, regarding discrepancies in research performance between private and state universities (S Cokgezen, 2006), high and low rank academic positions (Ben-David, 2010) and differences in academic advancements due to the country where the doctoral studies have been completed (Guimaraes, 2002;Katranidis et al 2014). None of the above studies compares research performance between countries nor does it assess how PhD location affects the productivity of a researcher.…”

Economists, Research Performance and National Inbreeding: North Versus South

2016

We investigate the research performance of 404 economists working in 17 Economics Departments and 4 countries. Two countries from the North of Europe (Belgium and Denmark) are compared with two countries from the South (Greece and Portugal) in terms of research productivity. Their performance is ranked using bibliometric indices. We examine the factors that drive economist's research performance using OLS and quantile regression analysis. The most productive economists have a US PhD and work in the North. Inbreeding at the national level is associated with higher productivity in the North and lower in the South.

“…The quantity and quality of published research work, the educational and research background, and the length of academic life (defined as the number of years since obtaining a doctoral degree) have each been empirically investigated as determinants of academic advancement, e.g. [1]- [3]. With regard to gender differences, many empirical works, carried out in several countries, have indicated a relative overrepresentation of females in the lower-i.e., nontenured-ranks.…”

This study investigates possible vertical gender differences in the academic hierarchy related to the research performance and academic life of faculty members in the Economics departments of Greek Universities. The statistical analysis carried out confirms the existence of significant gender differences facing women in the academic hierarchy, with a relative overrepresentation of female faculty members in the two lower-non-tenured-academic ranks. This overrepresentation coincides with a longer academic life than that of men, suggesting a greater delay in their hierarchical advancement. Differences in research productivity and the quality of their research work cannot explain, statistically, this delay. The finding contradicts the outcomes of similar studies that deal with gender differences in research productivity, which have mainly been carried out in the Anglo-Saxon world. In addition, logistic regression analysis shows that research performance facilitates men's academic promotion to a higher rank, but not women's.
