Top Schools by OM/SCM Research Productivity, Impact & Collaboration

Schools ranked by the median productivity, the impact h-index, or the collaboration centrality of their tenure-track Operations & Supply Chain Management faculty. Toggle to switch the ranking.

Productivity: median of UTD-24 publications / (data-pull year − PhD year). Impact: the department's faculty-level h-index — the largest k such that k of its TT OM/SCM faculty each have a personal CPY h-index of at least k. Rewards depth of high-impact faculty without being inflated by a large roster of low-impact ones. Impact values are reported as fractional h-indices, interpolated between integer levels so close ranks remain distinguishable (see methodology). Collaboration: eigenvector centrality in the directory's school co-authorship network (co-authored UTD/OM-journal papers from the last 5 years, citation-weighted with dampening so breadth across many partners beats a single strong tie; the most central school scores 100). The top 10 earn the Collaboration Hub badge. Faculty without a computable value count as 0. Schools with fewer than 5 TT OM/SCM faculty are excluded from the productivity and impact rankings; the collaboration ranking has no faculty floor. Last publication data pull: 2026-08-23.
