The past 12 months have seen Times Higher Education publish an impressive range of university rankings – not only its highly respected World University Rankings, published in September, but also a number of domestic and regional league tables based on its huge library of global higher education data.
The 10 articles below relate to the most popular rankings of the year, based on website traffic. In most cases, the tables were devised, compiled and published by THE. The exceptions are the Global Employability Ranking, which is based on a survey designed by French human resources company Emerging, and the WSJ/THE College Ranking, which is published in partnership with The Wall Street Journal.
