UiO er igjen best i landet

Rangeringen Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2011-12 av Thomson Reuters ble offentliggjort nå i natt norsk tid, og viser at UiO ligger på 181. plass mens UiB er på 191. plass.

Skandinavian gjør det godt

Ifølge rangeringen kommer de skandinaviske universitetene godt ut. Blant verdens 200 beste universiteter kommer fem fra Sverige, tre fra Danmark og to fra Norge. Finland har ett. Island nådde ikke opp blant topp 200-universitetene denne gangen.

I Skandinavia er det Karolinska Institutet som ligger høyest på en 32. plass. Lund ligger på 80. plass og Uppsala på 87. plass. Stockholms Universitet er på 131. plass mens Kungliga Tekniska högskolan er på 187. plass.

Tre danske universiteter er på top 200-lista: Aarhus Universitet er på 125. plass mens Københavns Universitet er på 135. plass og Danmarks Tekniske Universitet på 178. plass.

Helsingfors Universitet i Finland blir rangert på en 91. plass, hovedsakelig på grunn av innflytelsesrik forskning.

Harvard ned fra toppen

Det er fortsatt amerikanske universiteter som dominerer lista med sju universiteter blant de 10 beste. Den største overraskelsen er at Harvard ikke lenger er nummer én – for første gang på åtte år, men deler andreplassen med Stanford. Det er nå California Institute of Technology (Caltech) som er rangert som verdens ledende universitet.

Utenfor USA er det Storbritannia som har flest universiteter på topp 200, representert med 32 universiteter etterfulgt av Nederland og Tyskland med 12 hver. Canada har ni og Australia sju på lista.

Når Thomson Reuters har gitt universitetene rangeringer har de sett på 13 faktorer, blant annet en akademisk undersøkelse og 50 millioner krediteringer verden over.

Den høyeste rangeringen utenfor USA og Storbritannia er ETH Zürich – Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, på 15. plass. Sveits med sine 8 millioner innbyggere har tre universiteter blant de 70 beste. Italia er ikke representert på lista, mens de fleste universitetene i Frankrike og Irland faller på lista.

Det høyest rangerte asiatiske universitetet er University of Tokyo på 30. plass.

Israel er det eneste landet i Midtøsten som er representert på lista med Hebrew University of Jerusalem på 121. plass og Tel Aviv University på 166. plass.
