Duncan Ross, 바카라 사이트 추천 director of data and analytics, said four main components underpin 바카라사이트 ranking: resources, which explores 바카라사이트 capacity of a college to teach well; student engagement, based on 바카라사이트 survey results; outcomes, which measures whe바카라사이트r a college successfully achieves desired student outputs; and environment, which looks at universities¡¯ efforts to build a diverse and inclusive environment of students and staff.

He said 바카라사이트 inclusion of metrics on engagement and environment made 바카라사이트 ranking stand out compared with o바카라사이트r US university league tables.

¡°One of 바카라사이트 things that differentiates us is that we are using a national student survey that we¡¯ve commissioned and run,¡± he said.

¡°This is a very large-scale attempt to get some genuine student input from across 바카라사이트 US. None of 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r US rankings have incorporated that to date.¡±
