TIMES HIGHER EDUCATION WORLD UNIVERSITY RANKINGS '24

-

The Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings 2024 have been released recently. It is the 20th edition of these rankings. The World University Rankings offer a comprehensive list of the top universities worldwide, giving special emphasis to their dedication to research.

The Times Higher Education (THE) World University Rankings made its debut through a collaboration with QS, back in 2004. This time 18 calibrated performance indicators are included which measure an institution's performance in five areas:

  1. Teaching
  2.  Research Environment
  3.  Research Quality
  4.  Industry
  5.  International Outlook

➤ In this ranking, 91 Indian universities have made the list, increasing from the 75 universities included last year.

➤ None of the Indian universities secured a spot in the top 200 rankings.

➤ The Indian Institute of Science (IISc) Bangalore has been ranked in the range of 201 to 250, got its best spot since 2017.

Some of the other best universities in India according to the TIMES rankings are-

∎ Anna University Chennai, Jamia Millia Islamia New Delhi, Mahatma Gandhi University Kottayam (Kerala) and Shoolini University of Biotechnology and Management Sciences Solan (Himachal Pradesh) are in the group of universities ranked between 501 and 600.

∎ IIT Guwahati, IIT Dhanbad, IIT Patna, IIIT Hyderabad, Saveetha Institute of Medical and Technical Sciences Chennai,  NIT Rourkela and NIT Silchar are in the group of universities ranked between 601 and 800.

∎ IIT Ropar, IIT Mandi, NIT Warangal and NIT Srinagar are in the group of universities ranked between 1001 and 1200.

Other highlights of the World University Rankings:

🔹India has outperformed China, with 91 educational institutions, securing the fourth-highest representation globally.

🔸For the eighth consecutive year, the University of Oxford maintains its position as the top-ranked institution.

🔹Stanford University's rise to the second position has resulted in Harvard University dropping to fourth place. Massachusetts Institute of Technology is in 3rd place.

🔸The highest new entry in the rankings falls in the 301-350 range, with Italy's Catholic University of the Sacred Heart.

🔹The United States maintains its supremacy, with a total of 91 institutions included in the rankings, out of which 56 are positioned within the top 200.

🔸Kosovo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, North Macedonia and Armenia join the ranking for the first time. These all countries are from Europe.  

It is essential to remember that rankings are just one aspect of evaluating a university's educational performance. Factors such as program offerings, location, cost, student diversity, cultural inclusivity, sustainability efforts and personal goals also should be included in the decision-making process. University rankings should be viewed as tools to aid rather than dictate our choices in college selections. The true value of an institute lies not just in its global standing but in the knowledge gained, the experiences shared and the personal growth achieved throughout the journey.
