U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

The social and economic impact of the durability of constructions is obvious, since in the EU, around 50% of the total construction industry resources are still used for repair/rehabilitation and maintenance of existing structures, which should respond to new quality criteria, new design codes and actions. The master program Construction rehabilitation aims to qualify the bachelor graduates to design/ re-design of new/ existing structures, and to take part, as a specialist, at construction, repair and rehabilitation works.

The energy consumption as well as the fire vulnerability of buildings should be decreased, in order to create a sustainable built environment. The new and the existing buildings should respond to new demands regarding these criteria and consequently should be properly designed or rehabilitated for energy saving and fire safety. The acquired knowledge will qualify the Master graduates to design and re-design the new and existing buildings, considering these aspects.
