We investigate the potential of using open data about higher education and research activities as a basis for constructing university rankings at the national level. In our case study, open data from the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technological Development of Serbia served as a foundation for deriving indicators of university performance and calculating ranks of universities from Serbia. In addition to reviewing notable international rankings of universities, we extracted the international standings of universities from Serbia and discussed the national university rankings that were generated during our investigation.
