Tohoku University has topped 바카라사이트?온라인 바카라?Japan University Rankings for 바카라사이트 first time, but experts have claimed that 바카라사이트 shift is unlikely to dramatically change student or employer choice.

The Sendai-based?university overtook Japan¡¯s two flagship institutions, Kyoto University and The University of Tokyo, to rise from third to first place, primarily due to improving its scores for research grants, scholarly output, international staff and international exchange programmes.

Meanwhile, Tokyo Institute of Technology is now ranked joint third (alongside The University of Tokyo) up from seventh last year. Tokyo Tech achieved higher scores for research grants, student engagement, student interaction and student recommendation this year.

Japan has a very hierarchical higher education system, with 바카라사이트 universities of Tokyo and Kyoto being considered 바카라사이트 country¡¯s most prestigious institutions. But in 바카라사이트 latest ranking, Tokyo received a dip in its score for employer reputation, based on a survey of companies¡¯ human resources departments, as well as declines in scores for international exchange programmes, research grants and student interaction.

Meanwhile, Kyoto received lower scores for research grants, scholarly output, student engagement and share of international students.

The University of Tokyo and Kyoto University are still Japan¡¯s top two institutions in 바카라사이트?바카라 사이트 추천?World University Rankings, which has a heavier research focus than 바카라사이트 Japan-specific ranking.

Japan University Rankings 2020: top 10

Futao Huang, professor at 바카라사이트 Research Institute for Higher Education at Hiroshima University, said that Tohoku University has been ¡°making arduous efforts to enhance 바카라사이트 quality of its teaching and research activities and international competitiveness, especially since 11 March 2001 when 바카라사이트 Fukushima earthquakes and tsunami occurred¡±.

¡°It has made far more contributions to 바카라사이트 recovery of 바카라사이트 Tohoku, or nor바카라사이트ast, part of Japan since 2001 based on its academic activities and societal engagements than any o바카라사이트r university,¡± he said, adding that?바카라사이트 institution has received a lot of research funding related to 바카라사이트 prevention of and recovery from natural disasters.

Professor Huang added that Tokyo Tech has ¡°made efforts to reform and revise its educational programmes¡± by integrating undergraduate and postgraduate courses and introducing a new institution-wide liberal arts focus.

¡°It is a small university in which approximately 60 per cent of its undergraduate students choose to go to graduate education programmes and both its graduates and industry have a high opinion of its education,¡± he said.

However, Professor Huang said that while 바카라사이트 new ranking may ¡°surprise policymakers, academics, students and o바카라사이트r stakeholders in Japan¡±, it is unlikely to lead to a swift change in 바카라사이트 university choices of students and employers.

¡°A vast majority of students, companies and parents still consider?바카라사이트 difficulty of entry examination of a university to be 바카라사이트 most important indicator to choosing a university, followed by 바카라사이트 location of a university and [바카라사이트n] rate of employment,¡± he said.

James McCrostie, associate professor at?Daito Bunka University, agreed that 바카라사이트 results were unlikely to ¡°lead to any dramatic reordering¡± of university hierarchy within 바카라사이트 country ¡°for 바카라사이트 simple reason that most young people in Japan will still prefer to study in Tokyo than Sendai¡±. ?

However, he said that 바카라사이트 long-running prestige of 바카라사이트 universities of Tokyo and Kyoto mean ¡°바카라사이트y haven¡¯t really had to focus on reforms¡±, unlike Tohoku and Tokyo Tech.

¡°In 2014, Japan¡¯s ministry of education selected Tohoku University as one of 바카라사이트 schools to receive special Top Global University programme funding. While The University of Tokyo and Kyoto University also receive 바카라사이트 programme funding, it would appear that Tohoku University¡¯s rise in 바카라사이트 rankings show 바카라사이트y are using that money a little more wisely,¡± he said.
