==Тарихы==
<!--
The need for an international ranking of universities was highlighted in December 2003 in [[Richard Lambert]]’s review of university-industry collaboration in Britain [http://www.hm-treasury.gov.uk/lambert_review_business_university_collab.htm] for [[HM Treasury]], the finance ministry of the United Kingdom. Amongst its recommendations were world university rankings, which Lambert said would help the UK to gauge the global standing of its universities.

The idea for the rankings was credited in Ben Wildavsky's book, ''The Great Brain Race: How Global Universities are Reshaping the World'',<ref>Princeton University Press, 2010</ref> to then-editor of [[Times Higher Education]], [[John O'Leary]]. Times Higher Education chose to partner with educational and careers advice company [[Quacquarelli Symonds]] (QS) to supply the data, appointing Martin Ince [http://www.martinince.eu], formerly deputy editor and later a contractor to THE, to manage the project.

Between 2004 and 2009, Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) produced the rankings in partnership with Times Higher Education (THE). In 2009, THE announced they would produce their own rankings, the [[Times Higher Education World University Rankings]], in partnership with [[Thomson Reuters]]. THE cited a weakness in the methodology of the original rankings,<ref>{{cite web|last=Mroz |first=Ann |url=http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=26&storycode=408968&c=1 |title=Leader: Only the best for the best |publisher=Times Higher Education |date= |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> as well as a perceived favoritism in the existing methodology for science over the humanities,<ref>{{cite web|last=Baty |first=Phil |url=http://www.insidehighered.com/views/2010/03/15/baty |title=Views: Ranking Confession |publisher=Inside Higher Ed |date=2010-09-10 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> as one of the key reasons for the decision to split with QS.

QS retained the intellectual property in the Rankings and the methodology used to compile them {{Citation needed|date=September 2010}} and continues to produce the rankings, now called the QS World University Rankings.<ref>{{cite journal | url=http://chronicle.com/article/Times-Higher-Education/124455/?sid=at&utm_source=at&utm_medium=en | first=Aisha | last=Labi | journal=The Chronicle of Higher Education | location=London, UK | title=Times Higher Education Releases New Rankings, but Will They Appease Skeptics? | date=2010-09-15| accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> THE created a new methodology, first published independently as the [[Times Higher Education World University Rankings]] in September 2010 and altered again for publication by THE on October 6, 2011.

QS publishes the results of the original methodology in key media around the world, including ''[[US News & World Report]]'' in the United States and ''[[Chosun Ilbo]]'' in Korea. The first rankings produced by QS independently of THE, and using QS's consistent and original methodology, were released on September 8, 2010, with the second appearing on September 6, 2011.

==Методологиясы==
<!--
QS tried to design its rankings to look at a broad range of university activity. Six indicators are used.
-->
===Академиялық эксперттік бағалау (40%)===
<!--
The most controversial part of the QS World University Rankings is their use of an opinion survey referred to as the Academic Peer Review. Using a combination of purchased mailing lists and applications and suggestions, this survey asks active academics across the world about the top universities in fields they know about. QS has published the job titles and geographical distribution of the participants.

The 2011 rankings made use of responses from 33,744 people from over 140 nations in its Academic Peer Review, including votes from the previous two years rolled forward provided there was no more recent information available from the same individual. Participants can nominate up to 30 universities but are not able to vote for their own. They tend to nominate a median of about 20, which means that this survey includes over 500,000 data points. More here [http://iu.qs.com/projects-and-services/world-university-rankings/2011-academic-survey-responses/].

In 2004, when the rankings first appeared, academic peer review accounted for half of a university's possible score. In 2005, its share was cut to 40 per cent because of the introduction of the Recruiter Review.
-->
===Рекрутерлік эксперттік бағалау (10%)===
<!--
This part of the ranking is obtained by a similar method to the Academic Peer Review, except that it samples recruiters who hire graduates on a global or significant national scale. The numbers are smaller – 16,875 responses from over 130 countries in the 2011 Rankings – and are used to produce 10 per cent of any university’s possible score. This survey was introduced in 2005 in the belief that employers track graduate quality, making this a barometer of teaching quality, a famously problematic thing to measure. University standing here is of especial interest to potential students.

-->
===Факультеттегі студенттер саны (20%)===
<!--
This indicator accounts for 20 per cent of a university’s possible score in the rankings. It is a classic measure used in various ranking systems as a surrogate for teaching commitment, but QS has admitted that it is less than satisfactory. More on the QS website here [http://iu.qs.com/projects-and-services/rankings-indicators/methodology-faculty-student/].
-->
===Факультет бойынша цитаталар (20%)===
<!--
Citations of published research are among the most widely used inputs to national and global university rankings. The QS World University Rankings used citations data from Thomson (now Thomson Reuters) from 2004 to 2007, and since then uses data from Scopus, part of Elsevier. The total number of citations for a five-year period is divided by the number of academic staff in a university to yield the score for this measure, which accounts for 20 per cent of a university’s possible score in the Rankings.

QS has explained that it uses this approach, rather than the citations per paper preferred for other systems, because it reduces the effect of biomedical science on the overall picture – bio-medicine has a ferocious “[[publish or perish]]” culture. Instead QS attempts to measure the density of research-active staff at each institution.  But issues still remain about the use of citations in ranking systems, especially the fact that the arts and humanities generate comparatively few citations. More here [http://iu.qs.com/projects-and-services/rankings-indicators/methodology-citations-per-faculty/].

QS has conceded the presence of some data collection errors regarding citations per faculty in previous years' rankings.<ref>http://rankingwatch.blogspot.com/2007/11/another-kenan-flagler-case-of.html</ref>

One interesting issue is the difference between the Scopus and Thomson Reuters databases. For major world universities, the two systems capture more or less the same publications and citations. For less mainstream institutions, Scopus has more non-English language and smaller-circulation journals in its database. But as the papers there are less heavily cited, this can also mean fewer citations per paper for the universities that publish in them.

-->
===Халықаралық бағыт (10%)===
<!--
The final ten per cent of a university’s possible score is derived from measures intended to capture their internationalism: five percent from their percentage of international students, and another five percent from their percentage of international staff.

This is of interest partly because it shows whether a university is putting effort into being global, but also because it tells us whether it is taken seriously enough by students and academics around the world for them to want to be there.

===Data sources===

The information used to compile the World University Ranking comes partly from the online surveys carried out by QS, partly from Scopus, and partly from an annual information-gathering exercise carried out by QS itself. QS collects data from universities directly and from their web sites and publications, and from national bodies such as education ministries and the National Center for Education Statistics in the US and the Higher Education Statistics Agency in the UK.

===Aggregation===

The data are aggregated into columns according to its Z score, an indicator of how far removed any institution is from the average. Between 2004 and 2007 a different system was used whereby the top university for any measure was scaled as 100 and the others received a score reflecting their comparative performance. According to QS, this method was dropped because it gives too much weight to some exceptional outliers, such as the very high faculty/student ratio of the [[California Institute of Technology]]. In 2006, the last year before the Z score system was introduced, Caltech was top of the citations per faculty score, receiving 100 on this indicator, because of its highly research and science-oriented approach. The next two institutions on this measure, [[Harvard]] and [[Stanford]], each scored 55. In other words, 45 per cent of the possible difference between the world's universities was between the top university and the next one (in fact two) on the list, leaving every other university on Earth to fight over the remaining 55 per cent.

Likewise in 2005, Harvard was top university and [[MIT]] was second with 86.9, so that 13 per cent of the total difference between all the world's universities was between first and second place. In 2011, [[the University of Cambridge]] was top and the second institution, Harvard, got 99.34. So the Z score system allows the full range of available difference to be used in a more informative way.

===Classifications===

In 2009, a column of classifications was introduced to provide additional context to the ''[[rankings]]'' tables. Universities are classified by size, defined by the size of the student body; comprehensive or specialist status, defined by the range of faculty areas in which programs are offered; and research activity, defined by the number of papers published in a five-year period.

===Fees===

In 2011, QS began publishing average fees data for the universities it ranks. These are not used as an indicator in the rankings, but are clearly of immense interest and reveal much about a university's self-image and market position.

QS publishes domestic and international fees for undergraduate and postgraduate study.

===Results===

The institutions that dominate the QS rankings are either large, general research institutions or large science and technology specialists such as [[MIT]] or [[Imperial College]]. To be included in the QS World University Rankings, institutions must teach in at least two of the five main areas of academic life (the social sciences, the arts and humanities, biomedicine, engineering and the physical sciences), and must teach undergraduates.

===Faculty-level analysis===

QS publishes a simple analysis of the top 100 institutions in each of the five faculty-level areas mentioned above: natural sciences, technology, biology and medicine, social sciences and the arts and humanities. These five tables list universities in order of their Academic Peer Review score. They also give the citations per paper for each institution, but the two data sets are not aggregated.

QS uses citations per paper rather than per person partly because it does not hold details of the academic staff in each subject area, and partly because the number of citations per paper should be a consistent indicator of impact within a specific field with a defined publishing culture.

==Effects==
Web-raters such as Alexa [www.alexa.com] verify that the QS Rankings attract millions of page views. As the main audience are 18-24 year olds (according to Alexa in October 2011), it is rational to suppose that students and potential students are their main user. Some universities, especially in Asia, have a target to be well-placed in the rankings. In October 2011, Queen’s University Belfast (UK) was advertising with the slogan “Destination Global Top 100.” [http://www.qub.ac.uk/sites/QUBJobVacancies/AcademicOpportunities/Chairs/DestinationTop100/]

QS has formed an international advisory board <ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/world-university-rankings/advisory-board |title=QS World University Rankings Advisory Board |publisher=Top Universities |date=2009-11-12 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> for the Rankings, convened by Martin Ince [http://www.martinince.eu], and with members in Europe, Asia, Africa and North and South America.

==Commentary==
Several universities in the UK and the Asia-Pacific region have commented on the rankings positively. Vice-Chancellor of New Zealand's [[Massey University]], Professor Judith Kinnear, says that the Times Higher Education-QS ranking is a "wonderful external acknowledgement of several University attributes, including the quality of its research, research training, teaching and employability." She says the rankings are a true measure of a university's ability to fly high internationally: "The Times Higher Education ranking provides a rather more and more sophisticated, robust and well rounded measure of international and national ranking than either New Zealand's [[Performance Based Research Fund]] (PBRF) measure or the [[Academic Ranking of World Universities|Shanghai rankings]]."<ref>[http://masseynews.massey.ac.nz/2004/Press_Releases/11_11_04.html Flying high internationally]{{dead link|date=September 2010}}</ref>

Martin Ince,<ref>http://www.martinince.eu</ref> chair of the Advisory Board for the Rankings, points out that their volatility has been reduced since 2007 by the introduction of the Z-score calculation method and that over time, the quality of QS's data gathering has improved to reduce anomalies. In addition, the academic review is now so big that even modestly ranked universities receive a statistically valid number of votes.

===Criticism===

Since the split from [[Times Higher Education]], further concerns about the methodology QS uses for its rankings have been brought up by several experts. Simon Marginson, professor of higher eduducation at University of Melbourne, in the article "Improving Latin American universities' global ranking" for University World News on 10 маусым 2012, said: "I will not discuss the QS ranking because the methodology is not sufficiently robust to provide data valid as social science." <ref>http://www.universityworldnews.com/article.php?story=20120606174803978</ref>

In an article for the New Statesman entitled "The QS World University Rankings are a load of old baloney", David Blanchflower said: "This ranking is complete rubbish and nobody should place any credence in it. The results are based on an entirely flawed methodology that underweights the quality of research and overweights fluff... The QS is a flawed index and should be ignored." <ref>http://www.newstatesman.com/blogs/david-blanchflower/2011/09/world-university-faculty</ref>

Philip Altbach, professor of higher education at Boston College, in an article, The Globalisation of College and University Rankings, in Change magazine, Jan/Feb 2012, said: “The QS World University Rankings are the most problematical. From the beginning, the QS has relied on reputational indicators for half of its analysis… it probably accounts for the significant variability in the QS rankings over the years. In addition, QS queries employers, introducing even more variability and unreliability into the mix. Whether the QS rankings should be taken seriously by the higher education community is questionable." <ref>http://www.changemag.org/Archives/Back%20Issues/2012/January-February%202012/Globalization-abstract.html</ref>

The QS World University Rankings have been criticised by many for placing too much emphasis on peer review, which receives 40 percent of the overall score. Some people have expressed concern about the manner in which the peer review has been carried out.<ref name="UniversityRankingWatch">{{cite web|last=Holmes |first=Richard |url=http://rankingwatch.blogspot.com/2006/09/so-thats-how-they-did-it-for-some-time.html |title=So That's how They Did It |publisher=Rankingwatch.blogspot.com |date=2006-09-05 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> In a report,<ref name="Wills">[http://www.aus.ac.nz/branches/auckland/akld06/AUS-SP.pdf Response to Review of Strategic Plan by Peter Wills]</ref> Peter Wills from the University of Auckland, New Zealand wrote of the ''Times Higher Education''-QS World University Rankings:

{{bquote|But we note also that this survey establishes its rankings by appealing to university staff, even offering financial enticements to participate (see Appendix II). Staff are likely to feel it is in their greatest interest to rank their own institution more highly than others. This means the results of the survey and any apparent change in ranking are highly questionable, and that a high ranking has no real intrinsic value in any case. We are vehemently opposed to the evaluation of the University according to the outcome of such PR competitions.}}

[[Quacquarelli Symonds]] has been faulted for some data collection errors. Between 2006 and 2007 [[Washington University in St. Louis]] fell from 48th to 161st because QS confused it with the [[University of Washington]] in Seattle.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://rankingwatch.blogspot.com/2007/11/another-kenan-flagler-case-of.html |title=University Ranking Watch |publisher=Rankingwatch.blogspot.com |date=2007-11-11 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> QS committed a similar error when collecting data for ''Fortune'' Magazine confusing the University of North Carolina's Kenan-Flagler business school with one from North Carolina Central University.

Some errors have also been reported in the faculty-student ratio used in the ranking. At the 16th Annual New Zealand International Education Conference held at Christchurch, New Zealand in August 2007, Simon Marginson presented a paper<ref name="Simon">{{cite web|url=http://www.cshe.unimelb.edu.au/people/staff_pages/Marginson/KeyMar8-10Aug07.pdf |title=Rankings: Marketing Mana or Menace? by Simon Marginson |format=PDF |date= |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> that outlines the fundamental flaws underlying the ''Times Higher Education''-QS World University Rankings. A similar article<ref name="Simon1">{{cite web|author=December 06, 2006 12:00AM |url=http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,20867,20877456-12332,00.html |title=Rankings Ripe for Misleading by Simon Marginson |publisher=Theaustralian.news.com.au |date=2006-12-06 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> (also published by the same author) appeared in ''The Australian'' newspaper in December 2006. Some of the points mentioned include:

{{bquote|Half of the ''THES'' index is comprised by existing reputation: 40 per cent by a reputational survey of academics ('peer review'), and another 10 per cent determined by a survey of 'global employers'. The ''THES'' index is too easily open to manipulation as it is not specified who is surveyed or what questions are asked. By changing the recipients of the surveys, or the way the survey results are factored in, the results can be shifted markedly.
#The pool of responses is heavily weighted in favour of academic 'peers' from nations where ''The Times'' is well-known, such as the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and so on.
#It's good when people say nice things about you, but it is better when those things are true. It is hard to resist the temptation to use the ''THES'' rankings in institutional marketing, but it would be a serious strategic error to assume that they are soundly based.
#Results have been highly volatile. There have been many sharp rises and falls, especially in the second half of the ''THES'' top 200 where small differences in metrics can generate large rankings effects. [[Fudan University|Fudan]] in China has oscillated between 72 and 195, [[RMIT University|RMIT]] in Australia between 55 and 146. In the US, [[Emory University|Emory]] has risen from 173 to 56 and [[Purdue University|Purdue]] fell from 59 to 127.}}

''THES''-QS had introduced several changes in methodology in 2007 which were aimed at addressing some of the above criticisms,<ref>Sowter, Ben (1 November 2007). [http://www.topuniversities.com/worlduniversityrankings/university_rankings_news/article/times_higher_education_qs_world_university_rankings_2007/ THES – QS World University Rankings 2007 - Basic explanation of key enhancements in methodology for 2007]"</ref> the ranking has continued to attract criticisms. In an article<ref name="Greece1">{{cite web|url=http://www.biomedcentral.com/content/pdf/1741-7015-5-30.pdf |title=1741-7015-5-30.fm |format=PDF |date= |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref> in the peer-reviewed BMC Medicine authored by several scientists from the US and Greece, it was pointed out:

{{bquote|If properly performed, most scientists would consider peer review to have very good construct validity; many may even consider it the gold standard for appraising excellence. However, even peers need some standardized input data to peer review. ''The Times'' simply asks each
expert to list the 30 universities they regard as top institutions of their area without offering input data on any performance indicators. Research products may occasionally be more visible to outsiders, but it is unlikely that any expert possesses a global view of the inner workings of teaching at institutions worldwide. Moreover, the expert selection process of ''The Times'' is entirely unclear. The survey response rate among the selected experts was only <1% in 2006 (1,600 of 190,000 contacted). In the absence of any guarantee for protection from selection
biases, measurement validity can be very problematic.}}

Alex Usher, vice president of Higher Education Strategy Associates in Canada, commented:

{{bquote|Most people in the rankings business think that the main problem with ''The Times'' is the opaque way it constructs its sample for its reputational rankings - a not-unimportant question given that reputation makes up 50% of the sample.  Moreover, this year's switch from using raw reputation scores to using normalized Z-scores has really shaken things up at the top-end of the rankings by reducing the advantage held by really top universities - [[University of British Columbia]] (UBC) for instance, is now functionally equivalent to [[Harvard University|Harvard]] in the Peer Review score, which, no disrespect to UBC, is ludicrous. I'll be honest and say that at the moment the ''THES'' Rankings are an inferior product to the Shanghai Jiao Tong’s [[Academic Ranking of World Universities]].}}

Academics have also been critical of the use of the citation database, arguing that it undervalues institutions who excel in the social sciences. Ian Diamond, former chief executive of the [[Economic and Social Research Council]] and now vice-chancellor of the [[University of Aberdeen]] wrote to ''[[Times Higher Education]]'' in 2007, saying:<ref name="Diamond">{{cite web|url=http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=26&storycode=311132 |title=Social sciences lose 1 |publisher=Timeshighereducation.co.uk |date=2007-11-16 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref>

{{bquote|The use of a citation database must have an impact because such databases do not have as wide a cover of the social sciences (or arts and humanities) as the natural sciences. Hence the low position of the London School of Economics, caused primarily by its citations score, is a result not of the output of an outstanding institution but the database and the fact that the LSE does not have the counterweight of a large natural science base.}}

Criticism of the ''Times Higher Education''-QS league tables also came from Andrew Oswald, professor of economics at University of Warwick:<ref name="warwick">{{cite web|url=http://news.independent.co.uk/education/higher/article3245492.ece |title=There's nothing Nobel in deceiving ourselves by Andrew Oswald, The Independent on Sunday |publisher=News.independent.co.uk |date=2007-12-13 |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref>

{{bquote|This put Oxford and Cambridge at equal second in the world. Lower down, at around the bottom of the world top-10, came University College London, above MIT. A university with the name of Stanford appeared at number 19 in the world. The University of California at Berkeley was equal to Edinburgh at 22 in the world. Such claims do us a disservice. The organisations who promote such ideas should be unhappy themselves, and so should any supine UK universities who endorse results they view as untruthful. Using these league table results on your websites, universities, if in private you deride the quality of the findings, is unprincipled and will ultimately be destructive of yourselves, because if you are not in the truth business what business are you in, exactly?
Worse, this kind of material incorrectly reassures the UK government that our universities are international powerhouses. Let us instead, a bit more coolly, do what people in universities are paid to do. Let us use reliable data to try to discern the truth. In the last 20 years, Oxford has won no Nobel Prizes. (Nor has Warwick.) Cambridge has done only slightly better. Stanford University in the United States, purportedly number 19 in the world, garnered three times as many Nobel Prizes over the past two decades as the universities of Oxford and Cambridge did combined.}}

The most recent criticism of the old system came from Fred L. Bookstein, Horst Seidler, Martin Fieder and Georg Winckler in the journal ''Scientomentrics'' for the unreliability of QS's methods:

{{bquote|Several individual indicators from the Times Higher Education Survey (THES) data base the overall score, the reported staff-to-student ratio, and the peer ratings—demonstrate unacceptably high fluctuation from year to year. The inappropriateness of the summary tabulations for assessing the majority of the “top 200” universities would be apparent purely for reason of this obvious statistical instability regardless of other grounds of criticism. There are far too many anomalies in the change scores of the various indices for them to be of use in the course of university management.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.springerlink.com/content/d02771828173244w/ |title=Scientometrics, Volume 85, Number 1 |publisher=SpringerLink |date= |accessdate=2010-09-16}}</ref>}}

==QS Asian University Rankings==
In 2009, ''[[Quacquarelli Symonds]]'' (QS) launched the QS Asian University Rankings in partnership with ''[[The Chosun Ilbo]]'' newspaper in Korea. They rank the top 200 Asian universities and has now appeared three times. The University of Hong Kong was top in 2010 and The Hong Kong University of Science & Technology was top in 2011. These rankings use some of the same criteria as the World University Rankings as well as other measures such as incoming and outgoing exchange students

==QS Latin American University Rankings==

The QS Latin American University Rankings [http://www.topuniversities.com/university-rankings/latin-american-university-rankings/2011] were launched in October 2011. They use academic opinion (30 per cent), employer opinion (20 per cent), publications per faculty member, citations per paper, academic staff with a PhD, faculty/student ratio and web visibility (10 per cent each) as measures. These criteria were developed in consultation with experts in Latin America, and the web visibility data come from Webometrics [http://www.webometrics.info]. This ranking showed that the University of São Paulo in Brazil is the region's top institution.

==QS World University Rankings by Subject==
In 2011, QS began ranking universities around the world by subject. The rankings are based on citations, academic peer review, and recruiter review, with the weightings for each dependent upon the culture and practice of the subject concerned. They are published in five clusters; engineering; biomedicine; the natural sciences; the social sciences; and the arts and humanities.
