Abstract

The publications of 298 faculty members of thirteen Greek Economic Departments and one Economics research institute was retrieved and analyzed together with other information like the institution and the date that they received their PhD diploma. We progressively assembly the research profile of each department providing detailed statistics on various research indices, like the number of publications and citations, h and g-index, the Gini coefficient of the distribution of publications within departments and the co-authoring links with domestic and foreign economic departments. We finally apply hierarchical cluster analysis to derive the research profiles of those departments.
