Times Higher Education (色盒直播) has today announced the results of its World Subject Rankings 2021, covering 11 subject areas (Arts and Humanities, Business and Economics, Clinical and Health, Computer Science, Education, Engineering, Law, Life Sciences, Physical Sciences, Psychology, and Social Sciences) and providing an overview of the best places in the world to study a chosen discipline. This year’s rankings sees a record 1,512 universities rank in at least one subject area, with 522 qualifying for the first time.

United States

The US’ status as a global superpower in higher education stands strong after a remarkable performance across the board in each field of study. As well as being the most represented country or region in the top 100 across all individual rankings, US institutions achieved 9 number one spots among them. For the first time ever, the US also secures 8 places in the top 10 for Life Sciences as the University of California, Berkeley (8th) moves into the group, despite an additional 106 debutants.

?United Kingdom

The UK enjoys similarly impressive achievements across the board. In addition to being the second most represented in all 11 subject area top 100s, the University of Oxford retains its number one position in both Clinical and Health, and Computer Science. In Clinical and Health – where the University of Oxford tops the table for the 10th consecutive year – over 75% of the UK institutions ranking in the top 100 have either improved or maintained their previous ranking position.

Australia

Australia is a great success story in the ranking for Education. While the US’ Stanford University (1st) claims top spot for the 4th consecutive year, over 85% of the Australian universities (7 out of 8) in the top 100 improve their previous ranking positions. This includes the University of Melbourne (17th) climbing into the top 20 for the first time.

?Europe

Within Europe, Spain’s University of Navarra (44th) and Pompeu Fabra University (joint 72nd) are among the 37 institutions to debut in the ranking for Law, and both achieve positions in the top 100.

?Ellie Bothwell, Global Rankings Editor & International Reporter, 色盒直播, commented:

“With Covid-19 disrupting student decision-making about where, when or what to study, these rankings demonstrate that there are many places in the world to achieve a first-class education, either at home or abroad. While those looking to study abroad can’t go wrong by continuing to look to the established educational powerhouses of the US and the UK, and the continually rising quality of Canada and Australia, these tables make it clear that there are various other places to consider if you want to study in a specific discipline. With more institutions than ever included, it’s testament to the growing strength of the higher education sector across the globe.”
