Un analisis bibliométrico de la visibilidad internacional de los investigadores universitarios marroquíes

摘要

During the 1991-1998 period, the Institute for Scientific Information indizó, in the Science Citation Index, exactly 4014 scientific works in which there was at least one author affiliated to a Moroccan university. In this paper we study the university production in exact sciences, analyzing particularly, the aspect of international visibility of Morocco scholars. It seems that the scientific production is very irregular demonstrating the nonexistence of a clear scientific policy. Another phenomenon is that the youngest universities are more dynamic and contribute better to the international diffusion of the Moroccan scientific research. The physics and chemistry are the most visible scientific fields contributing respectively to 31% and 29% of the spread Moroccan production in the SCI.
