Abstract

Purpose: The primary purpose of this study is to find out the trend in research publications and the growth of international collaboration in the domain of science, engineering, technology, management, etc., of IIT Delhi from 2001 to 2022 within India and globally.

Methodology: Web of Science is one of the largest and most reputed bibliographic databases covering global publications in science, engineering, technology, etc. The publication records covered in the Web of Science database were extracted using the affiliation search for 22 years from 2001 to 2022, and the publications found are 24893. The scientometric techniques have been used to identify research trends, international collaborations, and research impact.

Findings: Almost all publications are in English, except two papers, and most are article types. The number of publications has consistently grown. The number of citations received also increased over time. The collaboration in research publications has consistently grown over the last 22 years. The difference in the average citations between with and without international collaborated publications is 5.14. The data shows that the USA is the leading country in research publications, but Canada has the highest average number of citations per publication.

Research limitations: The study is confined to the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi, and the period is restricted from 2001 to 2022.

Originality: A few studies have been found on institutions’ global collaboration and impact on the scientific community. This study benefits the researchers, educationists, administration, and sponsoring bodies to make informed decisions and investments.
