CALDERON, Adolfo Ignacio; PFISTER, Mariana  y  FRANCA, Carlos Marshal. Academic rankings in brazilian higher education: the emergence of a field of study (1995-2013). Roteiro. UNOESC [online]. 2015, vol.40, n.1, pp.31-50. ISSN 2177-6059.  https://doi.org/10.2177‐6059-v40n1201501060002.

Given the expansion of the academic rankings' phenomenon, on the global range, we discuss the state of the question about the rankings in brazilian higher education. The timid scientific production located was divided into three phases: pioneering initiatives in the construction of rankings (1995-1997); rankings and evaluation of the higher education (2003-2011); rankings in the context of the world-class university (2008-2013). It was found that although this is an emerging field of study, the deepening of the academic rankings has not attracted the interest of the researchers of Educational Sciences, a fact that we can see in the reduced academic literature, in the existing gaps on unexplored issues, in the lack of research groups on the topic in question.
