BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – According to new journal publication rankings from the Association for Information Systems, the Indiana University Kelley School of Business ranks fourth worldwide in terms of research contributions by its faculty in the Department of Operations and Decision Technologies.
The rankings are based on the number of publications by Kelley ODT faculty in the three top information systems journals – Management Information Systems Quarterly, Information Systems Research and Journal of Management Information Systems.
Founded in 1994, the Association for Information Systems is the premier professional organization for people and organizations who lead the research, teaching, practice and study of information systems worldwide. The association has about 5,000 members from 100 countries.
“I realize that many rankings are perceptual, but this one is completely factual,” said Vijay Khatri, professor and chairperson of operations and decision technologies and the Judith Norman Davis and Kim G. Davis Professor of Business Analytics. “This reflects the quality of research of our faculty as well as how nimble we are as a department. For example, our faculty are engaged in research related to Covid, cybersecurity, misinformation and other topics that are pertinent from a practice perspective.”
In addition to the success by Kelley ODT faculty as a group, eight professors recently were recognized for their individual research activities. Alan Dennis, professor of information systems and the John T. Chambers Chair of Internet Systems, was honored for his extensive contributions to the discipline over his career.
