INDICATORS OF THE EFFECTIVENESS OF SCIENTIFIC ACTIVITY OF UNIVERSITY TEACHING STAFF AS ONE OF THE ELEMENTS OF AN EFFECTIVE CONTRACT

Abstract

The work is dedicated to an analysis and allocation of indicators for evaluating the scientific activity of university teaching staff, which affects the contents of an effective contract. The main performance indicators related to publication activity, presentation of scientific results at scientific events of various levels, and the results of students’ research work are proposed. Citation indexes, patents for own inventions (or as part of a team) are highlighted as a separate factor. The results of the leadership of graduate students and doctoral students are recognized as important. The practice of organizing the work of universities today shows the importance of external financing through the attraction of extra-budgetary funds for research activities through “grant” work, which is also proposed to be attributed to the indicators of the effectiveness of scientific activity.
