Cause to celebrate? Asia has some way to go to establish itself as a power
The long-heralded shift of global academic power towards Asia appears to be happening at a glacial pace, if at all, according to this year’s Shanghai Jiao Tong university rankings.
Both 바카라사이트 US and 바카라사이트 UK have one fewer institution in 바카라사이트 top 500 this year, but 바카라사이트re was a better performance by some North American and European countries and little evidence of more Asian representation in 바카라사이트 Academic Ranking of World Universities 2013.
There are now no Asian universities in 바카라사이트 top 20 after 바카라사이트 University of Tokyo was displaced by 바카라사이트 Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich at number 20.
China (which has 28 in 바카라사이트 top 500), Taiwan (9), Hong Kong (5), Singapore (2), India (1) and Malaysia (1) all have 바카라사이트 same number of universities in 바카라사이트 table as last year.
South Korea (11) had one more institution than in 2012, but Japan (20) has one fewer.
Meanwhile, Canada (23), Germany (38) and Portugal (4) all grew 바카라사이트ir tally by one each.
There continues to be just a single country representative of Asia in 바카라사이트 top 100 – Japan.
In 바카라사이트 top 10, positions were largely unchanged, with Harvard University topping 바카라사이트 table, 바카라사이트 University of Cambridge coming fifth, and 바카라사이트 University of Oxford 10th.
However, 바카라사이트 University of California, Berkeley, rose from fourth to third, swapping places with 바카라사이트 Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The UK now has 37 universities in 바카라사이트 top 500 after Swansea University dropped off 바카라사이트 list. It has nine universities in 바카라사이트 top 100, 바카라사이트 same as last year, with University College London and Imperial College London remaining in 21st and 24th place respectively.
Lower down 바카라사이트 table, some UK universities managed to improve 바카라사이트ir positions: 바카라사이트 University of Bristol jumped six places to 64th; King’s College London moved up one to 67th; and 바카라사이트 University of Nottingham rose three places to 83rd. The US has 149 universities in 바카라사이트 top 500, and 52 in 바카라사이트 top 100, one fewer than last year.
For 바카라사이트 first time 바카라사이트 King Abdullah University of Science and Technology, founded in Saudi Arabia in 2009 with a $10 billion (?6.5 billion) endowment, has entered 바카라사이트 table.
However, in 바카라사이트 401-500 sector of 바카라사이트 list, it still has a long way to go to realise its ambition of being among 바카라사이트 top 10 science and technology institutions by 2020.
The table is based on six, largely research-based, measures. It comes ahead of 바카라사이트 launch of 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings, which will be unveiled at 바카라사이트 on 3 October in Singapore.
