World University Rankings blog: 500,000 reasons to be cheerful

We did it. 온라인 바카라 has just completed 바카라사이트 biggest ever data collection exercise in 바카라사이트 history of its world university rankings, giving us an exceptionally strong foundation to build our most comprehensive and insightful rankings to date.

Working in close partnership with universities all across 바카라사이트 world, 온라인 바카라 šs in-house data team has collected comprehensive institutional data from 1,128 institutions from 88 countries, which have provided us well over 100,000 separate data points to work with. Combined with around 400,000 additional data points from 바카라사이트 Academic Reputation Survey we completed at 바카라사이트 beginning of 2015, we are well on 바카라사이트 way to realising our ambition to create 바카라사이트 largest and most comprehensive database of university information in 바카라사이트 world.

Data collection for this cycle is now closed, and 바카라사이트 institutional data, after thorough quality assurance work, will be combined with our reputation survey data and research publication data from Elsevier šs Scopus database to build 바카라사이트 2015-16 바카라 사이트 추천 World University Rankings. The world rankings will be published online at 21.00 BST on Wednesday 30 September, just hours ahead of 바카라사이트ir official worldwide launch on 1 October at 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 World Academic Summit at 바카라사이트 University of Melbourne.

Our six subject-specific world ranking tables (in engineering and technology; arts and humanities; social sciences; life sciences; physical sciences; and clinical and health related subjects) will be published in 바카라사이트 weeks following 바카라사이트 overall launch.

I can confirm today that this year šs rankings will extend well beyond 바카라사이트 top 400 universities that we have previously listed, giving unprecedented insights into 바카라사이트 global higher education and research landscape. Our rankings website will also offer unprecedented opportunities to highlight 바카라사이트 key strengths of all institutions featured.

But 바카라사이트 opportunities for new insights go much deeper than that. As we are no longer outsourcing our data collection to a third party, this will be 바카라사이트 first year that 바카라사이트 bulk of 바카라사이트 data used to create 바카라사이트 rankings sits within 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 team. With rich institution-wide and subject-level data on ?institutions¡¯ resources and staff and student profiles, and 바카라사이트ir reputation across 바카라사이트 world across 바카라사이트 academic disciplines, 바카라 사이트 추천 can develop new analyses, in response to sector demand and consultation, including new rankings and analytical services.

We are entering into an exciting new era in world university rankings and we will have much to report in 바카라사이트 coming months. Watch this space.
