Nature Index is a database related to the institutions to which researchers are affiliated. Only academic articles that published in 68 high-impact scientific journals, selected by a scientific committee, are considered. The database generates indexes that seek to be one of the metrics used to measure institutional quality and excellence.

The information collected in this database is organized and categorized by institution, country, and region, creating a research ranking based on different rating indices. This is an achievement for all professors, students and administrative staff of Yachay Tech University and for research in Ecuador.
