There are several important factors that should go into the rankings and peer reputation is only one factor. Student selectivity and institutional resources matter for the entire quality of the school. Peer Reputation can also be gamer as well. [/quote] HYPSM comprise the top 5 for peer reputation.[/quote] I don’t trust this peer review … how do they decide who matters? Unlike real life these lists barely move… I just don’t believe the same places each year have monopolies on top quality teaching and learning … [/quote] Pay to peer play? Old fart peer ranking conventions ? Skulls and bones/ other secret societies ? It just is not plausible that same institutions that mainly recruit from top 1% and legacies continue to dominate educational excellence in reality (in perception obviously is possible). It is rigged somehow. Maybe we are so desperate for order in our chaotic world that we collectively buy into this mass delusion of static hierarchies … [/quote] +1 They need transparent quantifiable data to support these static “peer ranked” hierarchies - for starters academic relevance could be measured in numbers of citations in different fields …[/quote] Here ya go - JHU fans will be pleased to see how high it ranks in the second list that scientifically ranks academic performance … a few elite universities (Harvard and MIT) retain similar lofty status but the overall rank of US universities in terms of actual academic performance looks very different form US News peer rankings (Princeton disappears altogether from that list while others such as public ivies of U Mich, various UCs and U Washington jump to the close to the top, )- it has more credibility to my mind as it measures number of articles, citations, total documents, article impact total, citation impact total, and international cooperation. https://www.umultirank.org/university-rankings/top-performing-universities/2018/top-cited-publications/ US universities are most successful in terms of the high impact of their academic research: the majority of top ranked institutions (16, as in 2017) are from the US. Among the top 25 are nine institutions from Europe, seven out of them from the UK. One university with top cited publications is from Israel. While some Asian universties score high on academic output (number of publications) they are not among the institutions with the highest citation impact. The 25 top performers in top-cited publications are: • The Rockefeller University (United States) • Massachusetts Institute of Technology (United States) • London Business School (United Kingdom) • The Institute of Cancer Research (United Kingdom) • Harvard University (United States) • Stanford University (United States) • Princeton University (United States) • University of California, Berkeley (United States) • California Institute of Technology (United States) • Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel) • Rice University (United States) • MODUL University Vienna (Austria) • University of California, Santa Barbara (United States) • Yale University (United States) • University of Oxford (United Kingdom) • London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (United Kingdom) • University of California, San Francisco (United States) • University of Chicago (United States) • The London School of Economics and Political Science (United Kingdom) • St Mary's University, Twickenham (United Kingdom) • University of Cambridge (United Kingdom) • Norwegian School of Sport Sciences (Norway) • University of Massachusetts Medical School (United States) • Mount Sinai School of Medicine (United States) • Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (United States) University Ranking by Academic Performance https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_Ranking_by_Academic_Performance URAP uses 6 main indicator to measure the academic performance. These indicators are number of articles, citation, total documents, article impact total, citation impact total, and international collaboration. The raw bibliometric data underlying URAP's 6 main indicators have highly skewed distribution. To address this issue, the median of the indicators have been used. The Delphi system was conducted with a group of experts to assign weighting scores to the indicators.
