The London-based Quacquarelli Symonds company has been creating the world rankings of higher education institutions since 2004.

  • Academic Reputation (30%)
  • Employer Reputation (15%)
  • Faculty Student Ratio (10%)
  • Citations per Faculty (20%)
  • International Faculty Ratio (5%)
  • International Student Ratio (5%)
  • International Research Network (5%)
  • Employment Outcomes (5%)
  • Sustainability (5%)
