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.
