Description
Summary:The purpose of this research paper is to describe the research outputs of the member universities of the ASEAN University Network (AUN). The paper is an inductive type of research that used a variety of information from Scopus to determine what AUN member universities are actively writing about. The author captured data from 1997 to 2017 from scopus.com to analyze what the AUN member universities and their respective countries have been studying. Results show that almost 50% of the total research outputs of all the ASEAN nations are contributed by the AUN member Universities, with Singapore’s NUS and NUT contributing 76% of Singapore’s total research outputs, while the Philippines’ DLSU, ADMU, and UP contributes 50%. Wealthy nations such as Singapore and Malaysia have been focusing their researches on engineering and computer sciences while countries like the Philippines, Laos, and Cambodia have been researching about agriculture and biological sciences. Another study can be conducted to show research activities of the different universities all over Asia, including those that are not part of the ASEAN University Network.
