Universities operate in a highly internationalized academic ecosystem which means that they compete on a global stage for academic talent, students, funding, and status.  One of the primary (and public) measures of prestige is determined by each university’s performance relative to their peers-regionally and internationally-on the various ‘Best Global Universities’ lists that are generated each year – Times Higher Ed, US News and World Report, The Shanghai Rankings and the QS Rankings. 

Determining why a university is ranked as it is and setting an explicit improvement strategy can boost reputation and can ultimately increase an institution's global visibility as it climbs the university league tables. However, not every ranking system is the same and it is  important to understand the nuances of different ranking systems as they allocate different weight to various indicators and to specifically understand how those metrics present at your given university. 
 
This webinar will detail the various indicators used by the different rankings regimes, will highlight how they impact a university’s ranking and we will provide a framework for analysis. In addition, this webinar will highlight some of the best practices we have helped to implement as universities work to improve the recognition and ranking, as expressed by the various rankings systems.
