The research company Active Group has launched and published the First All-Ukrainian Ranking of Art Higher Education Institutions for the academic year 2022-2023. The aim of the project was to group art education institutions into a separate ranking and develop indicators for them that would take into account the specifics of art education institutions.
A total of 13 higher education institutions subordinated to the Ministry of Culture and Information Policy were included in the ranking:
Transcarpathian Academy of Arts
Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after Mykhailo Boichuk
Kyiv National University of Theater, Cinema and Television named after I. K. Karpenko-Kary
Luhansk State Academy of Culture and Arts
Lviv National Academy of Arts
Mykola Lysenko Lviv National Music Academy
National Academy of Management Personnel of Culture and Arts
National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture
Tchaikovsky National Music Academy of Ukraine
Odesa National Music Academy named after A.V. Nezhdanova
Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts
Kharkiv State Academy of Culture
Kharkiv National University of Arts named after I.P. Kotlyarevsky
The institutions were analyzed according to 18 parameters grouped into four blocks: Academic Capacity, Number of Students, Reputation and Information Activity, Financial Performance and Openness. The weight of each of the indicators was taken into account using coefficients obtained on the basis of expert opinions of representatives of the field of art education and students.
The authors of the ranking used multi-criteria approaches to evaluating the activities of universities based on the processing of data that can be obtained from open sources and whose validity can be verified.
To evaluate the indicators, they used information from open sources: websites of higher education institutions, the website of the Unified State Electronic Database on Education, monitoring of media publications, as well as responses to requests for access to public information sent by researchers to the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine.
As a result, the First All-Ukrainian Ranking of Art Higher Education Institutions for the academic year 2022-2023 is as follows:
Educational institution Place in the ranking Result
Tchaikovsky National Music Academy of Ukraine 1 3.09
Kharkiv State Academy of Culture 2 2.37
National Academy of Management Personnel of Culture and Arts 3 2.03
I.P. Kotlyarevsky Kharkiv National University of Arts 4 1.71
Lviv National Academy of Arts 5 1.61
National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture 6 1.58
Odesa National Music Academy named after A. Nezhdanova 7 1.56
Kharkiv State Academy of Design and Arts 8 1.54
I.K. Karpenko-Kary Kyiv National University of Theater, Cinema and Television 9 1.48
Mykola Lysenko Lviv National Music Academy 10 1.17
Kyiv State Academy of Decorative and Applied Arts and Design named after M. Boychuk 11 0.93
Luhansk State Academy of Culture and Arts 12 0.77
Transcarpathian Academy of Arts 13 0.46
The Tchaikovsky National Music Academy of Ukraine won the ranking by a significant margin. The second place went to the Kharkiv State Academy of Culture, and the third to the National Academy of Culture and Arts Management.
According to Oleksandr Poznyi, coordinator of the project to create a ranking of art universities, director of the research company Active Group, the main goal of the ranking was to evaluate artistic educational institutions, as existing rankings did not fully take into account the peculiarities of art institutions. We also invite everyone to join our project and work together to improve the criteria for evaluating art institutions.
In the future, the researchers plan to conduct a similar assessment annually to track the dynamics of the development of Ukrainian art education institutions.
Evaluation methodology:
At the first stage of the assessment, the researchers collected factual information on the specified parameters from open official sources. Depending on the parameter, these were the official resources of educational entities, official requests to the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine and the Ukrainian State Center for International Education, as well as the QS rating.
The second stage involved normalizing various indicators to a scale from 0 to 1.5 so that different indicators could be compared.
This was followed by the third stage, in which each of the indicators was assigned a weight by experts in consultation with industry representatives and students in terms of the importance of the indicator for a potential applicant. The resulting coefficients are summarized in the table.
Parameter Coefficient
Academic capacity block
Number of faculties 1.5
Number of departments 1
Number of specialties 1.5
Number of educational programs 1.5
Number of accredited educational programs 1.5
Availability of scientists of specialized academic councils 1.1
Availability of professional collections of scientific publications 0.8
Number of students
Number of students of the first (bachelor’s) level – actual 1.5
Number of students of the first (bachelor’s) level – in accordance with the licensed volumes 1
Number of students of the second (master’s) level – actual 1.5
Number of students of the second (master’s) level – according to the licensed volumes 1
Number of students of the third (educational-scientific/educational-creative) level – actual 1.5
Number of students of the third (educational-scientific/educational-creative) level – according to the licensed volumes 1
Number of foreign students 0.8
Reputation and information activity
Information activity (number of references in the media) 1
Place or presence of the HEI in the international ranking QS WorldUniversityRankings 0.5
Financial indicators
Estimates for 2022 (general fund) 0.8
Estimates for 2022 (special fund) 0.8

Further, in the course of the ranking, the relevant parameters were calculated for each university, normalized to the scale score and equalized by using weighting factors to the requests of experts and applicants. Normalized and multiplied by the appropriate coefficient, the indicators for each of the educational institutions were added together and the final result was obtained.
