Answer

How long would it take for UIB to recover in international rankings?

Some improvements, such as better editing support, research communication and public outreach, could show results within a year. Bigger changes like stronger funding structures, international partnerships and new career paths for researchers usually take several years. Rankings move slowly, so progress is more likely to be gradual than instant.
