The listed publication figures reflect the scientific output of the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT), 
which is subject to scientific quality assurance in the form of independent peer review. The figures are 
based on the annual assessment of the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT) on the basis of its own pub-
lication database. The information for the WoS 2019 is only preliminary since not yet all publications have 
been included in the WoS at the time of the evaluation (24 February 2020). The journals and document 
types listed in the WoS encompass only a portion of the media in which the Austrian Institute of Technol-
ogy (AIT) publishes. For this reason, the WoS values do not completely depict the publication activity of 
the Austrian Institute of Technology (AIT).
