Introduction

This web site provides in clear, consistent and easily accessible format the university rankings from two different organisations: the Times Higher Education Supplement - Quacquarelli Symonds (THES - QS) and the Shanghai Jiao Tong University Institute of Higher Education.

The "THES - QS World University Rankings" have been running annually since 2004.

The Shanghai Jiao Tong University Institute of Higher Education "Academc Ranking of World Universities" have been running annually since 2003.

By analysing the results from two or more totally independent organisations one may make more informed conclusions and decisions than relying on one set of results alone. This will help in determining the best university for you or someone you know.

For details on the methodologies and further reading, you may visit the links provided on the links page, or read the book "Top Universities Guide" which was published in March 2008 and is shown below.
