Summary/Abstract: This study examines higher education institutions in Hungary, using German and Belgian institutions as a control group. Since many of these institutions are not represented in international rankings (mainly Hungarian institutions), we use further available ranking indicators from different secondary sources – these indicators are related to education, research, internationalization, and funding. We aim to answer the following research question: how Hungarian higher education institutions can reach and be among the top 100 and top 200 best institutions in the world? Based on our analyses, Hungarian higher education institutions need to develop the most in the following indicators: per lecturer in three indicators (number of Ph.D. graduates, number of international publications, research revenue), number of lecturers per undergraduate student, the proportion of foreign lecturers.
