Best Universities In The World, Harvard Back On Top. by moneybag100: 12:05am On Oct 29, 2014 |
As The Washington Post points out, it's a little odd for U.S. News to have Princeton at the top of their national universities list, but only ranked 13 for global universities. For their new ranking, U.S. News emphasized research prowess and global reputation, while omitting factors such as undergraduate admissions data and graduation rates that play a part in determining their national lists. "This is about faculty productivity and prestige ... It is meaningful for certain things and not necessarily meaningful for other things. We get that. This is about big muscular research universities doing what research universities claim is their mission," U.S. News Editor Brian Kelly told The Washington Post. Here are the top 2o universities in the world, according to U.S. News & World Report: 1. Harvard University 2. Massachusetts Institute of Technology 3. University of California, Berkeley 4. Stanford University 5. University of Oxford (United Kingdom) 6. University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) 7. California Institute of Technology 8. University of California, Los Angeles 9, University of Chicago 10. Columbia University 11. Johns Hopkins University 12. Imperial College London (United Kingdom) 13. Princeton University 14. University of Michigan 14. University of Toronto (Canada) 14. University of Washington 17. Yale University 18. University of California, San Diego 19. University of Pennsylvania 20.
