Abstract: Continuing the work begun by Michael H. Rothkopf in 1996, this paper presents the ninth ranking of universities according to their contributions to the INFORMS practice literature. Two rankings are given, each based on a different metric: visibility is the number of times a university is listed as the primary academic affiliation in the INFORMS practice literature; yield is the equivalent number of INFORMS practice papers attributable to each university based on author primary academic affiliation. As with the Eighth Rothkopf Rankings for US universities, the Naval Postgraduate School earns the top ranking for visibility and second for yield, whereas the Colorado School of Mines earns the top ranking for yield and second for visibility; for non-US universities, the University of Chile earns the top ranking for both visibility and yield.
