Inside Nagoya Institute of Technology's largest research partnership: Nagoya University

Behind Nagoya Institute of Technology's research output sits a defining relationship: 246 co-authored works with Nagoya University (Japan) in the five years to 2025, the university's single largest collaboration.

It anchors an unusually connected research base: 411 collaborating institutions across 52 countries, producing 5,019 joint works over the window, with international co-authors on 19% of output.

The collaborative work travels: its field-weighted citation impact stands at 0.95, where the world average is 1.0.

The Research Collaboration Index, the first global account of how universities actually collaborate, publishes its first full edition on Tuesday 15 September at 09:00 UK.

Every figure derives from the open global research record and is checkable at source.
