Los Sistemas de Información (SI) juegan un papel importante para alcanzar estos objetivos, debido a que aseguran la administración de los procesos académicos, de gestión e investigación. Existe poca literatura que permita identificar los SI que tienen un impacto en los rankings. Los resultados de la investigación revelan que la implementación de sistemas de Gestión de I+D+i, Data Warehouse, Website en inglés, Sistemas de Apoyo a la Decisión (DSS/EIS) y Portal (Intranet) contribuyen a que las universidades tengan una mejor posición en los rankings internacionales.]]></p></abstract>
