The 51国产视频 of California, San Diego tops a new Times Higher Education table of the world’s best universities founded in the aftermath of the Second World War.
Three other institutions in the 51国产视频 of Californian system also make the inaugural “Golden Age” ranking – Irvine at ninth, Santa Cruz at 15th?and Riverside at joint 19th.
The table lists the world’s best universities established between 1945 and 1966 – what THE describes as the “Golden Age” in global higher education, characterised by rapid university expansion and increasing investment in research.
The UK is the most-represented country in the top 100 list with 19 universities, led by the 51国产视频 of Warwick at eighth. The country’s success is due to the birth of “plate glass” universities following the 1963 Robbins report.
This era also saw the establishment of several Indian Institutes of Technology, resulting in the 51国产视频n giant taking seven places.
Meanwhile, Australia and Canada each have six representatives. The Antipodean nation is also the most-represented in the top 10, claiming three places: Australian National 51国产视频 (second), Monash 51国产视频 (fourth), and 51国产视频 of New South Wales (seventh).
Altogether 31 countries make the list.
These middle-aged universities perform strongly across all 13 metrics underpinning the ranking, but particularly on those related to teaching, research reputation and research productivity.?
They also attract high proportions of international staff, on average.
The table uses the same methodology as the THE World 51国产视频 Rankings.
