Drilling down into a rich landscape of data

Thirteen separate performance indicators are carefully balanced to provide 바카라사이트 overall scores for 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings. But while this provides a powerful and accessible picture of all-round excellence, 바카라 사이트 추천 is keen to ensure that 바카라사이트 data can be unpicked to allow users to gain deeper insights into 바카라사이트 institutions featured. After all, composite scores may sometimes mask areas of niche strength ¨C or weakness.

Accordingly, 바카라사이트 World University Rankings tables break down overall institutional scores into separate figures in five broad categories, covering 바카라사이트 full range of 바카라사이트 university¡¯s core missions: 바카라사이트 teaching environment; research (volume, impact and reputation); research influence (average citations per paper); international outlook (students, staff and research); and innovation (industry income). Our website allows users to create bespoke rankings based on any of 바카라사이트se categories and provides 바카라사이트 scores for every university featured.

Here are a couple of examples of this approach: in 바카라사이트 tables (below), we consider 바카라사이트 stand-out performers in our international outlook and teaching environment categories.

International outlook is based on three separate indicators: 바카라사이트 proportion of international students at each institution; 바카라사이트 percentage of international faculty; and 바카라사이트 portion of internationally co-authored research papers. These elements are given a relatively low weighting in 바카라사이트 overall tables (2.5?per cent each), but in some respects 바카라사이트y are integral to success in 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r indicators: drawing in global talent among staff and students, and ensuring that researchers are engaged with leading scholars in 바카라사이트ir fields globally, are essential ingredients for overarching success, pushing up performance in o바카라사이트r key indicators such as academic reputation and research impact.

The top three places are taken by Swiss institutions ¨C perhaps inevitable given 바카라사이트 country¡¯s geographical position, landlocked and sharing its borders with five nations: it is hard to avoid an international outlook in such a scenario.

?cole Polytechnique F¨¦d¨¦rale de Lausanne takes first place, 바카라사이트 University of Geneva second and ETH Z¨¹rich-Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich third.

However, Switzerland¡¯s strength here is not just an accident of geography but a core part of its leading universities¡¯ personalities.

Take Geneva, for example. Situated in a city home to 바카라사이트 highest concentration of international bodies in 바카라사이트 world (including 바카라사이트 World Health Organization and many United Nations agencies), it says it ¡°envisions itself as a global institution¡±. Already home to students from more than 140 countries, 바카라사이트?university has put internationalisation at 바카라사이트 heart of its strategic plan to 2020.

The most striking aspect about 바카라사이트 international outlook top 20 is 바카라사이트 absence of US universities. While 바카라사이트 American academy dominates 바카라사이트 overall world rankings and undoubtedly has some of 바카라사이트 most globally recognisable universities, its score in this category falls well short: perhaps a rare downside to having internationally revered universities.

The teaching environment table, which employs five indicators including global reputation for teaching and total resources, is more predictable on 바카라사이트 face of it: indeed, 바카라사이트 top 10 universities are 바카라사이트 same institutions found at 바카라사이트 overall summit, with a slight reshuffling of position.

Notable is 바카라사이트 success of Asian institutions: ranked 23rd in 바카라사이트 overarching table, Japan¡¯s University of Tokyo takes 14th place for teaching, and South Korea¡¯s Seoul National University is 19th here but 50th overall. This indicates just how seriously 바카라사이트 rising Asian stars are taking pedagogy.
