The Times Higher Education China Subject Ratings are the only performance tables that judge Chinese institutions against their global peers based on the Chinese Ministry of Education’s classification of subjects.
The ratings for economics reveal performance in two subjects: applied economics and theoretical economics.
In total, 851 universities worldwide receive a rating for at least one subject in the economics pillar.
Overall, 121 universities achieve an A+ grade in at least one economics subject; among them are Fudan, Nanjing, Zhejiang and Tsinghua universities in mainland China. Six universities in mainland China receive an A+ for theoretical economics and six receive an A+ for applied economics.
