Chinese universities dominate the Times Higher Education Emerging Economies Rankings 2022.

Out of more than 500 ranked universities, China takes 97 places, with Tsinghua University in second place. India was the second most represented country, with 71 universities.

The ranking shines a spotlight on universities in 48 countries classed as emerging economies, including Brazil, India, Mexico, Taiwan, Turkey and the Czech Republic.

All the universities in the top 10 also appear in the top 250 of the Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2022.

The full methodology can be found here.

Only institutions in countries in the FTSE Group’s Country Classification Process are eligible to be included in this ranking.
