The Universitat Jaume I of Castelló is in the first section (501-600) of universities in the world candidates to enter the Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU), prepared by the Jia Tong University of Shanghai from the analysis of 20,000 higher education institutions and considered internationally as the most prestigious university indicator. The public university of Castelló is the third Spanish university in highly cited research staff (located in the Advanced Materials University Institute -INAM- and in the Department of Agricultural Sciences and the Natural Environment), behind the universities of Barcelona and Granada, and the fifth in high level scientific production by lecturers, behind the Pompeu Fabra, Barcelona, ​​Autonomous University of Barcelona and Rovira i Virgili.

The Rector of the Universitat Jaume I, Eva Alcón, stressed that "it is a collective success" to be in such outstanding positions, especially given the size of the UJI, which has to compete with other universities much larger and with more resources. In this sense, she thanked and recognized the work of the university community for years to reach this level. Likewise, she pointed out that this recognition "encourages us to continue investing in research as one of the key elements of our model as a university".

The ARWU ranking takes into account indicators of academic performance or research such as the number of graduates and staff of the center with Nobel prizes or Fields medals, the number of publications in prestigious international journals such as *Nature* or *Science*; the number of highly cited researchers according to the annual list prepared by Clarivate Analytics; articles indexed by Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCIE) and Social Science Citation Index (SSCI) and the per capita academic performance of an institution.

The UJI is located in the 501-600 university strip of the ARWU World Top 500 Candidates, where it stands out especially in the number of highly cited researchers selected by Clarivate Analytics and in the total number of articles indexed in 2017, where only "article" type publications are considered, as well as in the ratio of scientific production by lecturers.

From 2007, CWCU developed the Academic Ranking of World Universities by major areas of knowledge (ARWU-FIELD) and the Academic Ranking of World Universities by subject (ARWU-SUBJECT), which since 2009 points out the 200 universities in the world classified in five subjects, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, computer science and economics business.

**Rankings by subject**

The Universitat Jaume I has placed five academic subjects in the Global Ranking of Academic Subjects 2018 in which the UJI appears in economics, chemistry, materials science, agriculture and management.

The subjects of economics and chemistry are in the range of the 201-300 best universities in these areas of knowledge. Science of materials and agriculture, which is included for the first time in the ranking, is in the range of 301-400, and management, which appears also for the first time, is in the range 401-500.
