In 2003, the Chinese government asks University of Jiao Tong de Shanghai to
establish a classification of world universities
In 2005, the Times Higher Education Supplement develops parallel system with
Quacquarelli Symonds (QS)
In 2007, le Higher Education &Accreditation Council of Taiwan, launches its own
classification based on scientific papers from the Web of Science
in 2004, the Centre for Science and Technology Studies of the Leiden University
launches a classification based on bibliometric indicators. Classification is
adjusted according to institutions’ sizes, number of articles, and citations per
articles, etc.
Germany (DAAD) supports efforts by CHE for a discipline-based classification in
order to help students to chose universities.Mean number of citations per article: 5 first ranked universities in Europe
