As explained by THE, the universities under the “reporter” status are universities that provided data for the World University Ranking but did not meet their eligibility criteria to receive a rank.
According to the THE, the ranking was based on their measurement of each institution’s performance in teaching, research environment, research quality, industry, and international outlook.
THE said that the World University Rankings 2024 included 1,904 universities across 108 countries and regions worldwide.
University of Oxford in the United Kingdom topped the list, followed by Stanford University, Massachusetts University, Harvard University, and the University of Cambridge.
