Elsevier, the information analytics business specializing in science and health, is broadening its collaboration with the National University of Science and Technology MISIS (NUST MISIS) in Russia by providing access to the full collection of high-quality Materials Science content.
As of December 2017, NUST MISIS researchers have access to Elsevier's 'classic collections' in Materials Science published in 1995-1998. This unique archive of specialised high-quality content will support NUST MISIS researchers on their path to discoveries in fundamental and applied research, while creating a solid base for advancing Russian research in a variety of scientific topics.
The only Russian university that entered the Times Higher Education World's Best Small Universities Ranking 2015-2016, NUST MISIS aims to expand the boundaries of research for Russia. Access to technology and information is key to achieving excellence, and the institution's collaboration with Elsevier represents a step towards that goal. The institution's researchers currently use Elsevier's full-text platform ScienceDirect, and abstract and citation database Scopus. Furthermore, the institution uses the research performance analytics tool SciVal for research evaluation and strategy.
NUST MISIS is the leading institution in Russia by research output in Top 10 Journal Percentiles according to CiteScore in the fields of Engineering and Materials Science in 2013-2017 (by Scopus data). Its strategic goal is to become a world leader in fundamental and applied research in a variety of fields ranging from its historic expertise in metallurgy, materials science and mining, and significantly improve its current standings in nanotechnologies, IT and biomedicine. Working with a number of industrial partners, the university also creates opportunities for specialised scientific research with the objective of transferring ideas, innovations, and technologies to real-life application.
