Different needs

To determine the latest rankings, THE measured universities based on the same areas as their World University Rankings: teaching, research, citations, international outlook and industry income.

However, to reflect the priorities and advantages of young universities, THE weighted certain things differently. For example, in the World University Rankings, results of THE¡¯s reputation survey accounts for 15% of a university¡¯s grade in the teaching segment. For young universities, it only accounts for 10%. Conversely, an aspect like the student-to-staff ratio carries a heavier weighting, with 6% of the final grading rather than 4.5%.
