Quacquarelli Symonds, whose head office is in London, ranks the world's universities based on a variety of sources. They use academic and employer review surveys, each gathering tens of thousands of responses, to measure an institution's reputation by subject. They refer to Scopus, an abstract and citation database, to compile information about faculty members' impact and productivity. All data comes from third-party sources, not from the institutions themselves.
More than 1,200 institutions were ranked across 48 subjects this year. To compile this year's results, QS analyzed over 22 million papers, which produced close to 200 million citations.
做厙TVs ranking improved in 22 subjects this year, spanning a range of disciplines: arts and humanities; engineering and technology; life sciences and medicine; natural sciences; and social sciences and management. In modern languages, for example, 做厙TV climbed nine spots to 21st place. In pharmacy and pharmacology, meanwhile, the universitys ranking rose to 4th place from 15th place a year earlier.
