HOW UNISA IS RANKED.
Only eight South African universities have made the 2018 Times Higher Education World University Rankings.
It appears in the #801-1000 section.
The universities of Cape Town, the Witwatersrand, Stellenbosch, KwaZulu-Natal, Pretoria, Johannesburg, and the Western Cape are among the top universities on the African continent.
The top 1000 universities account for less than 5% of the world’s 20 000 or more higher education institutions, hence Unisa is in strong company in the league. The group analyzed and ranked more than 1000 universities for the first time in 2017.
- “The 2018 World University Rankings judge universities across all of their core missions: teaching: research, knowledge transfer and international outlook. This year’s table was the most competitive yet, with more than 1 500 universities submitting data and 1 000 universities being included in the table. So it is a great achievement that Unisa has made this ranking. Congratulations!” the World University Ranking editor Phil Baty said.
- For the second year in a row, the University of Oxford has remained at the top of the international rankings, while the University of Cambridge has risen from fourth to second position.
The ascent of Cambridge comes at the expense of the California Institute of Technology, which was number one from 2012 to 2016, second last year, and is currently tied for third with Stanford. - Overall, European institutions comprise half of the top 200 positions, with the Netherlands and Germany joining the United Kingdom as the countries with the largest representation.
Each country has a new number one: Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands. - Another notable trend is the continued rise of China. The Asian giant is now home to two universities in the top 30: Peking and Tsinghua. The Beijing duo now outrank several prestigious institutions in Europe and the US. Meanwhile, almost all Chinese universities have improved, signalling that the country’s commitments to investment has bolstered results year-on-year.
- Because of their background as predominantly teaching-focused universities and their relatively recent embrace of tactics aimed at boosting research capacity, universities rated between 201 and 1000 tend to perform well in teaching.
“In general, developing-country institutions are held back in terms of their reputation for teaching as well as their research and citation impact.
Prestige takes a long time to earn and is usually granted after the accomplishments it recognizes have been completed.
“While research influence frequently correlates with high levels of research income and productivity, two criteria dominated by the world’s richest nations, this lag disadvantages newer and less advanced institutions,” said Ellie Bothwell of Times Higher Education.
The Times Higher Education World University Rankings are the only global performance tables that judge research-intensive universities across all their core missions: teaching, research, knowledge transfer, and international outlook.
