Inside Queensland University of Technology's largest research partnership: The University of Queensland

Behind Queensland University of Technology's research output sits a defining relationship: 6,791 co-authored works with The University of Queensland (Australia) in the five years to 2025, the university's single largest collaboration.

It anchors an unusually connected research base: 1,126 collaborating institutions across 78 countries, producing 28,918 joint works over the window, with international co-authors on 44% of output.

The collaborative work travels: its field-weighted citation impact stands at 3.54, 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.
