The scientific conference ranking presented on this page offers a comprehensive evaluation of events in the field of Engineering and Technology. Developed by Research.com, one of the leading platforms for science research and data analysis across major disciplines since 2014, this ranking is designed to assist the academic community in identifying the most influential venues for scholarly exchange and collaboration.
The position of each conference in this ranking is determined by a unique bibliometric score meticulously computed by Research.com. This score incorporates both the estimated h-index and the number of leading scientists—reputable experts who have participated in each conference—during the three years preceding the latest assessment. Such an approach ensures a holistic and reliable measure of each conference's impact and scientific prominence.
For this edition, the ranking includes conferences with Impact Score values collected on 2024-11-27. The selection process involved rigorous inspection of more than 2,262 conferences, each carefully chosen following a detailed examination of over 26,934 scholarly documents published within the last three years. These documents reflect the work of 9,385 respected scientists, further attesting to the credibility and depth of the analysis.
For a thorough explanation of the methodology employed in computing the ranking scores, including the underlying metrics and expert assessment criteria, please consult our Methodology Page.
A key indicator for each conference is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing at Robotics: Science and Systems (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing at Robotics: Science and Systems (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing at this conference is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the conference for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions at the conference edition to all articles published within that conference. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the conference.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 2.11% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 50.54% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing at the conference. Another 10.75% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 18.28% of all publications and 20.43% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of conferences they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same conference from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the conference in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing at a conference. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a conference, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
Exploring career pathways in Electronics and Electrical Engineering often leads students to consider complementary fields and advanced qualifications. For those interested in developing leadership skills alongside technical expertise, pursuing a masters in organizational leadership can enhance management abilities essential for overseeing complex engineering projects.
Many students also seek flexible learning options. Choosing from online colleges can provide access to high-quality accredited programs without geographic constraints. This flexibility is crucial for balancing work and study or advancing education while remaining employed.
For those considering interdisciplinary approaches, online graduate degrees such as online psyd programs offer pathways into applied research and psychological aspects of human factors in engineering design. Similarly, exploring msw programs might appeal to engineers interested in community outreach, social work, or integrating technology with social services.
Understanding these related degrees broadens career opportunities, making it easier to tailor education and professional growth to evolving industry demands and personal interests.
