SHJT-ARWU 2011 ranking

The Academic Ranking of World Universities (ARWU) was first published in June 2003 by the Center for World-Class Universities and the Institute of Higher Education of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China, and then updated on an annual basis. ARWU uses six objective indicators to rank world universities. It has become one of the the most widely used annual ranking of the world's research universities.

There might be some institutions that haven't participated in any ranking, we suggest you look at the more information column to view their courses/programs and more.
