Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings



Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings is an annual university ranking based on data covering four key areas of concern for students: research, employability, teaching and internationalization.

The research currently considers over 2,000 universities and ranks over 700. The top 400 are ranked individually while those that placed 401 and over are ranked in groups.

The rankings are compiled using the following six indicators:

  • Academic reputation (40%) – Academics are asked to identify the universities that are currently producing the best research in their field of expertise.
  • Employer reputation (10%)- Employers are asked to identify the universities that produce the best graduates.
