Abstract
The study examined the bibliometric analysis of the research publication output of the St Joseph Engineering College (SJEC), Mangaluru indexed in Scopus during 2004 to 2019. The parameters such as the growth of publications, authorship pattern, author productivity, degree of collaboration, major areas of contribution, most preferred journals, geographical distribution etc are studied to attain the objectives. The findings revealed that, among the 230 publications published during the period of 16 years, highest numbers of 50 papers were published in the year 2019. The conference proceedings were the most preferred channels of publications followed by journals. There is an increasing trend in the number of publications 195 (84.8%) during the second half period. i.e., from 2012 to 2019. The rate of degree of collaboration is 0.97. The collaborative research by three authors published more articles and 37 publications have collaborated with foreign countries. The “Journal of Molecular Structure” is preferred as the most popular journal by the authors whereas the Journal of “Knowledge-Based System” ranked first having highest impact factor amongst other journals. The study reveals that SJEC has especially contributed to the research in computer science, engineering, physics and astronomy, material science, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, business management and accounting, energy and decision science.
