QS World University Rankings® 2011 - Your Opinion Counts. Have Your Say.
Dear Academic,
The opinion of academics forms the very core of the QS World University
Rankings® - the most
widely circulated of the world rankings.
With over 15,000 respondents drawn on for our 2010 rankings, we are set to
significantly increase
response in 2011, and your role as a leading educationalist combined with
your subject focus makes
your opinion very important.
Please take 10 minutes now to complete our online survey.
The deadline for response is 11 April 2011 and respondents will go into the
draw to win an Apple
iPad loaded with the latest higher education apps.
Ensure your institution’s voice is also heard in this year’s survey.
Encourage your academic
colleagues to participate by registering their interest at our academic sign
-up facility. QS will validate
their request and send the survey to all eligible academics.

Vice-President / Deputy Vice-Chancellor 399 2.6%
Senior Administrator 556 3.7%
Head of Department 1,467 9.7%

Research Specialist 617 4.1%
Admissions Officer 50 0.3%
Administrator / Functional Manager 386 2.6%
Research Assistant 324 2.1%
Other 852 5.6%
Last year’s response included nearly 3,000 responses from university
leaders (see table).
“…we greatly value QS for the clarity and quality of the data you use and
for the stability which
enables us to see and understand trends over time. This, we think, gives
your rankings a
comparative advantage and considerable authority.”
Vice-Chancellor, Top 100 University
Academic opinion forms 40% of the QS World University Rankings®. This
high weighting is because
QS and its Advisory Board believe that it is the informed views of the
academic community that
ensures the ranking recognizes excellence without rigidly dictating the form
that excellence must
take. That judgment is left to those who are best qualified to make it: the
global academic
community.
Originally devised to serve the needs of internationally mobile students,
the publication of the QS
World University Rankings® is now widely anticipated by students,
parents, academics,
administrators and a wide range of other stakeholders including government
and industry.
Last year over 55 million people viewed the rankings results at QS and
partner web sites with more
than 1,200 newspapers and other media publishing the results. As the
international mobility of
students continues to increase we anticipate an even larger audience in 2011.
The QS World University Rankings® will be published in the Fall of 2011
using our tried and tested
methodology, based on extensive academic consultation and the advice of the
QS Advisory Board of
21 experts from around the world. We will again draw on citation data
provided from Scopus by
Elsevier, which remains the world's largest abstract and citation database
of research literature.
QS is committed to identifying diversity and excellence in all areas of
higher education globally and
the QS Global Academic Survey will also inform innovative evaluations such
as QS’ regional and
subject specific rankings and the new QS Stars™ Ratings System.
Thank you for your time and please contact us with any questions.
Kind Regards,
Ben Sowter
