It should be noted that different ranking institutions have different ranking standards and methods, so different ranking institutions will publish different ranking results. The above are the top 50 universities based on the QS World University Rankings in 2022, and other rankings may be slightly different.
QS organization selection criteria
The selection criteria of QS World University Rankings mainly include the following six aspects:
1. Academic reputation: To investigate the overall impression of the global academic community on universities and the academic contribution and influence of teachers in their research fields.
2. Employer's reputation: global employers survey graduates' employability and professionalism, including graduates' adaptability, innovation and leadership.
3. Teacher-student ratio: reflects the allocation of school teaching resources, including the number of faculty, students and class size.
4. Citation of academic papers: By collecting the data of scientific research papers published by colleges and universities, count the times and frequency of each paper being cited by other researchers, so as to measure the scientific research level and influence of colleges and universities.
5. Degree of internationalization: To investigate the degree of internationalization of universities, including the proportion of international students, the proportion of international teachers, the number of international cooperation projects and the number of international exchange projects.
6. School facilities: including library books, laboratory equipment, student dormitories, sports venues, etc. , reflecting the school conditions and students' living environment.
The weight distribution of QS world university rankings is based on the above six indicators, and the weight of different indicators will change with the ranking year. It should be noted that different ranking agencies may adopt different selection criteria and methods, so the ranking results published by different ranking agencies may be different.
