Publication intensity refers to the average number of publications produced by full-time faculty and is used as a measure to compare the publishing performance at different institutions. Scholarly publications represent a key benefit of the research conducted in the university environment. The comprehensive category rankings compare 91��ɫ with other Canadian universities with a similar range of undergraduate and graduate degree programs that have made Canada’s Top 50 Research Universities list.

91��ɫ also placed second in the publication impact category in the comprehensive category, which measures an institution's likelihood of being cited in the peer-reviewed academic literature.
