8. World University Rankings: Methodology
And in a nutshell -- here’s what we came up with.
13 separate performance indicators, reflecting the full range of a university’s mission: research, knowledge transfer, global outlook, and yes, the teaching environment.
A healthy 30 per cent dedicated to the teaching environment: unique to any global ranking.
Despite major improvements to the survey methodology, we’ve significantly reduced the weighting given to subjective reputation indicators. Down from half to a third.
Innovations: income and cash. Scaling
Lets have a closer look…
