С октября 1992 года такие издания, как The Times, The Independent ежегодно публикуют рейтинги британских университетов. Они обрели необычайную популярность в глазах общественности, с точки зрения восприятия лучших университетов.
Главная цель рейтингов – проинформировать читательскую аудиторию газет, особенно студентов, которые обучаются на A-level, и их родителей о статусе университетов. Также, отметим, что характеристики, которые даются вузам, основываются не только на исследовательских аспектах, присущих тому или иному учебному заведению, но и на уровне преподавания, вступительных требованиях, уровне удовлетворенности студентов и перспективах трудоустройства будущих алумни.
Предлагаем Вашему вниманию The Complete University Guide, история основания которого уходит в 2007 год. Особенность этого рейтинга в том, что он характеризует достижения университетов по 62 направлениям. Методология рейтинга основывается на девяти основных аспектах деятельности университетов: студенческие отзывы, качество исследовательской базы, вступительные требования, рейтинг профессорского состава, инфраструктура университета, награды, академические достижения, уровень трудоустройства выпускников, процент выпускников в соотношении с поступившими.
Ниже приводим результаты рейтинга The Complete University Guide на 2011 год:
