The 2013 Times Higher Education World Reputation Rankings
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2012-2013 powered by Thomson Reuters are the only global university performance tables to judge world class universities across all of their core missions – teaching, research, knowledge transfer and international outlook.
The UK had nine institutions in the top 100 – the universities of Cambridge, Oxford, Imperial College London, University College London, the London School of Economics, Edinburgh, Manchester, King’s College London, Bristol – three fewer than the inaugural 2011 rankings.
Germany, Japan and the Netherlands each has five universities in the top 100, France has four institutions and Canada, Hong Kong and Sweeden three apiece.
The top universities rankings employ 13 carefully calibrated performance indicators to provide the most comprehensive and balanced comparisons available, which are trusted by students, academics, university leaders, industry and governments.
