WASHINGTON, June 25,

Report, the global authority in education rankings and consumer

"The Best Global Universities rankings provide a starting point
for students to compare universities across the globe, within their
region, and even by specific discipline," said LaMont Jones, Ed.D., managing editor for
Education at U.S. News. "In their tenth year, the rankings have
expanded to include more schools and more subjects while ensuring a
focus on scholarly reputation and on institutions that prioritize
cutting-edge research."
This edition adds four new subject rankings: ecology; green and
sustainable science and technology; environmental engineering; and
marine & freshwater biology.
Powered by Web of Science™ data and InCites™ metrics
provided by Clarivate™, a leading global provider of transformative
intelligence, the Best Global Universities methodology weighs
factors that measure a university's global and regional research
reputation and academic research performance. For the overall
ranking, this includes bibliometric indicators such as
publications, citations and international collaboration. Each of
the 51 subject rankings has its own weighting based on academic
research performance in that specific area.
