World University League Tables 2012/13
Following the publication of the THE world university rankings, we can put the three world league tables together, and in particular the UK placings, in a handy reference guide. They all offer their own unique take on world university placings.
Here they all are:
The Times Higher World University Rankings, including UK results.
QS World Rankings 2012 also with UK results.
Shanghai Jiao Tong World Rankings and UK placings too.
…all your world league table needs in one handy location.
One fascinating quirk of the world versus UK tables which demonstrates why caution is needed at all times when dealing with such data is that the University of Edinburgh appears higher in the world rankings in both the QS and Times Higher tables than it does in the recent domestic Sunday Times ranking (where it is 39th). Different indicators being used but it really does raise questions about the Sunday Times methodology.
