Three universities in Canada are famous in the latest global university rankings, although they are not among the best. In the annual ranking of global universities made by The Times of London, McGill University, the University of Toronto and the University of British Columbia in Vancouver all rank in the top 50. Mcgill University ranks first among the three Canadian universities in the list, ranking 265,438+0, up three places from last year, Duolun University ranks 27th with two places, and the University of British Columbia ranks 50th with 65,438+02 places.

Like last year, Harvard University in the United States still ranks first, followed by Cambridge and Oxford in the United Kingdom.

The top 50 universities are mainly American and British universities, with three in Canada, two in France and Japan, and seven in Australia.

Canada did quite well.

Alex Usher, an expert on university ranking system at the Educational Policy Institute, a non-profit organization, pointed out that in terms of scale, Canada's performance is quite good.

This ranking is based on the survey results of 3700 scholars around the world. These scholars were asked to list the top 30 universities in their undergraduate research, and interviewed more than 700 people who became bosses after graduation, the ratio of international students to faculty, and the ratio of students to professors.

The top 200 universities, including university of alberta (133) and McMaster University (155), Queen's University (176+076) and University of Montreal (18 1), can be found on topuniversities.com's website.

Nunzio Quacquarelli, the research director of the survey, expressed the hope that this information can be an important reference for those who are interested in exploring international learners. However, Usher reminds Canadians not to be too influenced by the ranking, because it focuses on the research performance of universities and does not evaluate the ability of a university to teach students and the types of courses offered to undergraduates. He stressed that if it is an undergraduate, it will not be too affected by the ranking list, but if you want to enter the graduate school, you will definitely study the information carefully.
