THE World University Rankings 2023

Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings is the only global performance chart that evaluates research-oriented universities in terms of all their core missions (education, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook). It is one of the most comprehensive analyses trusted by students, academics, university administrations, industry and governments.

The performance indicators are grouped into five areas. These are teaching (the learning environment), research (volume, income and reputation), citations (research influence), international outlook (staff, students and research), and industry income (knowledge transfer).
