This research examined the place of Latin American Universities in international university rankings through an HJ-Biplot multivariate statistical analysis regarding a systematic process of literature review. To perform the statistical analysis, data were extracted from ARWU, THE, and QS rankings. It was proposed as the hypothesis that the universities which have reached significant visibility in university rankings have considerable support of their States. Consequently, the universities can access greater public and private funding through the sale of scientific services and useful knowledge to social, governmental, and business development. Likewise, it was concluded that statistical dispersion shows a disadvantage of Latin American universities compared to the rest of the world, regarding the international rankings system, which verifies that the rankings system operates as a variable directly related to the place of the region in relation to the rest of the globe because according to the ranking system analyzed, this region could be less favored in comparison with other studied systems. |
