°Õ±á·¡¡¯²õ World Reputation Rankings is the world¡¯s largest invitation-only academic opinion survey providing the definitive list of the top 200 most powerful global university brands, based on the judgement of senior published academics ¨C the people best placed to know the most about excellence in universities.??

The US has 52 institutions in the ranking ¨C four fewer than last year and the UK continues to have the second highest number of institutions with 20, four fewer than last year too.??

Mainland China has 15 universities ranked this year, eight in the top 100. Peking 51¹ú²úÊÓƵ has moved up two places again, from 15th two years ago, 13th last year to 11th this year. Germany follows Mainland China with 14 universities in the ranking.??

Phil Baty, °Õ±á·¡¡¯²õ chief global affairs officer, said: ¡°Reputation really matters ¨C it is the global currency of higher education, helping universities attract and retain talent, bring in research collaborators and court inward investment. It also gives students and alumni the prestige they need in a global jobs market. That's why °Õ±á·¡¡¯²õ World Reputation Rankings have become a closely watched barometer of the world¡¯s top academic brands.?

¡°It is clear the global power dynamics in elite higher education are shifting. The US and UK may still boast the world¡¯s most prestigious universities, but Beijing has two leading institutions edging ever closer to the very top of the reputation rankings, and overall, the US and UK are losing ground. This has real implications for the global movement of talent, and the geopolitics of knowledge creation and innovation. How long will the US remain so dominant?¡±?

Mark Sudbury, THE's head of reputation, who also runs the World 100 Reputation Network, said: ¡°The role of governments in university activities is reflected the growing importance of country reputation, particularly when it comes to student recruitment. In a number of countries, new government regulations around immigration are having an increasing influence on how prospective international students and their advisers view universities.?

¡°The challenging political and economic circumstances facing universities around the world means that they will have to work even harder to build their reputations with key audience groups and to prove their relevance to society.¡±?
