According to the latest incorporated figures, the number of newly admitted master's students stood at 8,999 people in the 2014/2015 academic year, 16% more than the previous year and 30% more than the 6,872 students enrolled in the 2012 academic year / 2013. Master's degrees are remaining immune to the loss of students registered by all Spanish universities. In fact, in the case of the Valencian public university system, this type of student has increased its weight considerably and already represents 9.3% of the total number of students in the 2014/2015 academic year, compared to 7.6% in the previous academic year . In addition, this training model is proving an incentive to attract foreign students. 15.9% of the master's students from the five Valencian public universities are foreigners, a much higher proportion than that of foreign students with an official degree, which stands at 5.4%. The internationalization of Valencian universities can also be seen in the evolution of articles published in international collaboration, which have increased 10 percentage points in ten years to represent 46.8% of all articles in 2014. Precisely, research and knowledge transfer is one of the parameters analyzed in SIUVP that has obtained outstanding results in the last year included. They improve the data in terms of doctoral theses read, impact of scientific production, resources captured in R&D and registered patents. This last indicator has gone in two years from 9.5 patents for every 1,000 professors, to 13.2 patents in 2014. The SIUVP platform has just updated 41 of the 60 indicators it offers, with data referring to the 2014/2015 academic year. Specifically, this review includes new figures in the sections: University access Students Academic performance Internationalization Research and transfer (indicators related to scientific production, patents and teaching staff) SIUVP allows you to consult the data of a specific academic year, as well as to extract the temporal evolution of that same indicator during the last years. It is also possible to customize the query based on the choice of a specific university or the system in general and, in some indicators, the detail by branch of education or degree. La información recogida en la base de datos de SIUVP, resultado del trabajo conjunto de las universidades públicas valencianas y el Ivie, abarca desde los aspectos más puramente académicos, como la oferta y la demanda docente, hasta los datos económicos más concretos sobre los recursos y resultados de la actividad de cada universidad. Esta plataforma y su actualización periódica demuestran el compromiso por la transparencia de las 5 universidades públicas valencianas: Universidad de Alicante, Universitat Jaume I de Castelló, Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche, Universitat Politècnica de València y Universitat de València.
