Background and aim:The aim of this study was to determine the status of scientific productions of Jundi-Shapur University of Technology (JSUT) in Scopus database in order to provide the opportunity to increase the scientific productions of the university and improve its rank by determining its research performance and applying the necessary strategies. Materials and methods:The survey was conducted based on the scientometric approach using VOSviewer. The population included 308 scientific productions with affiliation JUST, indexed in the Scopus database from beginning to 2021. To collect data, the word "Dezful" was first searched in the Scopus database and then the results were limited to JSUT and the years considered. Excel and VOSviewer were used to collect and extract the data, which were analyzed using statistical methods and tests such as U Mann-Whitney. Findings:The highest growth rate of JUST scientific productions was observed in 2008, 2010 and 2019 with 200, 150 and 100, respectively, and the average growth rate was 52.53. The predominant co-authorship pattern of JSUT researchers was the pattern of 3 authors, the collaboration degree was 0.961, and the collaboration index was 3.19. The most prolific author was Reza Nikandish (45 article in Scopus), the most cited authors were Mohammad Reza Assari and Alireza Keramat, the highest involvement in scientific products was associated with Amirkabir University, and the most scientific collaborations were with England. In addition, there was a significant difference between the proportion of women and men in the scientific production of JSUT (P-value = 0.013). Conclusion:Although the trend of JUST’s scientific production and its citation rate has been accompanied by ups and downs, it has developed well in recent years. Moreover, it seems that its scientific collaborations with local and international researchers have been effective in increasing the number of articles and its citation rate.
