How to Read These Rankings

Best Global Universities: Compares universities worldwide almost entirely on academic research: publication and citation impact, international collaboration, and research reputation by field — undergraduate teaching and campus experience are barely measured. It is best used to judge research strength and the platform for graduate study, and is only an indirect reference for undergraduate choices.

Graduate program rankings: Ranks schools field by field (business, engineering, law, medicine, education, and their specialties), mainly on reputation surveys of deans and professionals in each discipline, plus employment outcomes and research indicators for some fields; not every field is updated every year. It shows how a specific program is regarded within its profession — most useful once you have a clear field in mind for graduate study.

Rank data is compiled from publicly released U.S. News ranking snapshots, for school-selection reference only; all rights remain with U.S. News & World Report.
