U-Multirank is a multidimensional, user-driven approach to international ranking of higher education institutions. It compares the performances of higher education institutions in the five dimensions of university activity: teaching and learning, research, knowledge transfer, international orientation, and regional engagement. Based on empirical data, U-Multirank compares institutions with similar institutional profiles.
During the last years U-Multirank has become the largest international database on universities in the world. The breadth of its database enables its users to create interactive multi-dimensional comparisons across five performance dimensions.
'In the current crisis, it is even more imperative that when selecting a university, students consider what is most important to them. U-Multirank helps with this by providing data on student satisfaction - whether that be in regards to the quality of courses and organisation of studies, classroom size, contact to industry, or even how timely students graduate. Students can pick from these criteria and many more to create their own personalised rankings,' said Frank Ziegele, joint project-leader of U-Multirank.
The interactive tool assisting students in selecting their best matching university or program is available at www.umultirank.org. In addition, U-Multirank also offers an interactive map of 100 top performing universities worldwide on different dimensions, including information on the experience of universities with full online programmes (LINK).
