It is impossible for higher education institutions (HEI) to ignore different national and international comparisons, since emergence of global rankings. Involvement in rankings changes and in some aspects improves the performance of higher education institutions. Trying to rise their position in the rankings, HEI are seeking ways, how to improve performance in those areas that are measured by the indicators used for rankings of HEI. The purpose of this study is to search for some possible solutions for more effective research work organization at the universities and correct reflection of achieved results to raise their position in university rankings. Research methods used: analysis of scientific publications on university rankings aspects related to different methodologies and indicators; expert survey on university organisation and used ranking indicators. For expert interviews were invited internationally recognized university management representatives and several administrators at universities in different countries. For different aspect evaluations, there was used evaluation scale 1-10, where 1-do not agree and 10-fully agree. Expert evaluations were analysed by descriptive statistics indicators and cross-tabulations. Main results and findings: rankings have significant role in the development of HEI. It is important to define the accessible rankings position in the strategy of HEI. Higher education institutions must determine such goals and results of performance that favour the higher ranking position. For increase of international recognition HEI have to recognise that as well important aspects are the academic and employer reputation surveys in rankings.

“…In a psychological perspective, perception is a process of interpreting the information received by human senses (Munoz, 2016); eye in seeing pictures and reading, ears in listening to sound or auditive information and so on (Suharman, 2005: 23). Perception is "the consciousness of particular material things present to sense", indicating awareness of special material objects that are present in the world of understanding (Harun et al, 2019;Johnes & Tone, 2016;Kusumastuti & Idrus, 2017).…”

The current study aims to investigate the participation rate of people in Central Java, Indonesia to public Islamic universities in the period of 2015-2017, i.e. perceptions, factor analysis, and public interest. Grounded in mixed methods, data were collected through questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. A total of 24,903 parents of prospective students situated in the areas of three public Islamic universities in Central Java became the research population. Proportionate random sampling was undertaken to yield 268 research participants. Study findings promote that firstly, the participation rate of people in Central Java to the government-funded Islamic universities reached 16.9 in 2016, 66.6 in 2017, and 67.3 in 2018 for percentages. Secondly, the average public perception rate to the public universities under the supervision of the Ministry of Religious Affairs was reported at the good criterion well with a score of 22.9. The majority of people demonstrated a positive view of the harmony of science and religious studies. Afterward, the average internal and external factors influence interest in the admission of the Islamic universities with an average score of 69.7 at the good enough level. Lastly, the public interest of Central Java in the universities achieved a score of 35.5 at the quite high criterion. This study also demonstrates that the public Islamic university's services have provided excellent infrastructure, teaching staff, and student academic services. Nonetheless, various improvements are required, e.g. information technology and improvement of quality graduates to compete with other public universities.

“…Higher education is well-positioned to take advantage of business benefits such as increased efficiency and organizational effectiveness. However, educational institutions are more complex, especially in terms of raw materials, processes and products that do not die (Kusumastuti & Idrus, 2017;Salimova & Soldatova, 2021).…”

Nowadays, many lecturer positions in higher education are filled by millennials; by 2025, the number of millennial workers will reach 75%, which means three out of four workers are millennials. Millennials are also known as generation Y. Previous studies show that there are differences in the work values of millennials and previous generations, such that millennial workers may be reluctant to engage in Organizational Citizenship Behavior (OCB). OCB refers to extra-discretionary role behaviors that enhance the organizational environment, which supports task performance. In today's complex and fast-paced organizations, extrarole behaviors have become critical to organizational success. Transformational leadership and self-efficacy have been found to be strong predictors of OCB, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study aims to examine the effect of transformational leadership on the OCB of millennial lecturers, for which self-efficacy is a mediator. This research is a quantitative study, involving 357 millennial lecturers in Indonesia as research subjects. The results of this study indicate that self-efficacy partially mediates the effect of transformational leadership on the OCB of millennial lecturers. An increase in transformational leadership will increase OCB, either directly or through an increase in lecturer self-efficacy. The results of this study can be utilized by the government and university managers as review material.
